A comedy/drama by Gillian Plowman
Directed by Tom Mackan
Produced by Inez Hayes
Set Construction by Chuck Learn
In this story we observe the often poignant, sometimes hilarious struggles of four individuals as they try to adjust to life after periods of legal confinement in psychiatric institutions. They are housed by the social welfare system in two small Council flats in a modern English urban setting. They are encouraged to find jobs and make their way back into the civil and social structures that had earlier judged them mentally unfit by courts of law. Ms. Plowman has created four flawed and fragile human beings from the deep insight of her practice and experience. The play is a delicate social and human document.
