Description

The English-American writer/comedian returns to the UK with the world premiere of this 'improbably funny, life-affirming, bright bauble of a piece' about love, loss and hope (Berkshire Eagle). Alison found true love for the first time in her 50s with an Indian climate scientist who had also immigrated to the US. Then he died. Then something wildly unexpected happened. When Archbishop Desmond Tutu found out about it, he insisted she write this show. So if you don't like it, you can blame him. Music by Gary Schreiner. 'Alison Larkin is hugely entertaining... marvelously light-footed' (Times).
