This Jean McConnell play, directed by Viv Stuart, consists of five mini-plays, all set on a seaside promenade. Each is for two women, by turns funny and poignant, with a twist at the end.
In “Day Trippers” (Joyce Eastwood, and Ruth Kerrigan in her last appearance with us), two friends on a works outing have an unexpected encounter on the beach
“Early Blight” (Sally Anthonies and Eileen White) is a heart-breaking exploration of a doomed mother-daughter relationship
“Doggies” (Caroline Oakley and Joanne Tennick) is a hilarious tale about two dog owners
In “Late Frost” (Viv Stuart and Judith Wright), a woman finds out her best friend had an affair with her late husband
Finally, in “Theatrical Digs”, Pascalene (Deborah Hester) takes a break between performances: who is the older woman (Kath Pagdin) that she meets on the beach?
