By Michael Weller

Directed by
Andy Lee

Ten years after the end of their affair in New York, two lovers meet in a hotel far from their homes. Both are now married, with children and both have been wondering about the road not taken. What begins as a casual meal and an evening of catching up turns into a painful, hilarious, passionate and moving voyage towards a moment that could change both their lives forever.

Uncompromising in its attitude to marriage and infidelity, this cracking modern play explores these themes in a fresh, lively and original way
