What is the Play About?It is Bert's birthday. His wife, Millicent, embroiders. Bert rows a boat in the living room. They become overwhelmed with the ordinariness of their lives. There is no meaning and nothing to look forward to. Visitors arrive. Visitors leave. Bert and Millicent get on with their lives. "It's been a special day, Millicent. If you had your life over would you do it again?" |

Yet we play it out every day of our lives. After seeing it, we have to go home and live it for real." The Daily Telegraph |
