He talks about going to Switzerland, to that place where you pay them to kill you… And I say “go! It'll do you good. Broaden your horizons…you've never been abroad!
After sixty years of marriage, happily settled into their retirement village in Yorkshire, Jack and Florence have elevated bickering almost to the status of high art. That said, they're otherwise getting along fine with the support of a cousin and the hilarious interventions of the man known locally as 'Rhubarb Eddie'. But will their anxious son, shuttling between London and LA, and their errant daughter, contemplating a move to Australia, leave them to live out their days in peace?
Richard Bean's uproarious new comedy tackles the prickly problem of dealing with ageing parents who just don't want to be dealt with. This edition was published to coincide the world premiere at London's Hampstead Theatre, in October, 2023.
