by Nicholas Meiklejohn A play about the reunion between two estranged friends - now in their early forties. One’s been stuck in the small Scottish town where they grew up, having grudgingly taken over his family’s moribund business, while the other found modest and fleeting success as an indie filmmaker. When the filmmaker shows up with an unusual request it sparks contradictory memories of the past. A play about the fragility of memory, ambition, familial expectations, and the frustrations of looming middle age. Jack ..... Robert Jack Danny ..... Sandy Grierson Director Gaynor Macfarlane
