This wry romantic comedy was commissioned for the 1998 BT Biennial. Max narrates, in Act I, in reverse from his surprise birthday party in June back to the previous Christmas. In Act II Kate tells her story from Christmas to June. Kate feels under-appreciated by Max and leaves to start a theatre studies course. Her father Daniel moves in with his son-in-law because he cannot bear his wife Jenny any longer, whilst Jenny moves in with Kate, considering herself to be a widow. It's mayhem all round...
