Behind the bar of their northern pub, the Landlord and Landlady welcome their regulars with open arms. Lending an ear for stories of celebration, of loss, of love and of despair, the bickering couple work together to keep the locals in high spirits – with drinks, conversation and laughter.
 
But what is their story? As a lost boy turns up on their doorstep looking for his Dad, the couple must confront their own demons and perhaps, for the first time in years, talk to each other…
 
Performed by two actors playing all 14 characters in this black comedy, Jim Cartwright’s poignant play takes audiences into the world of one working-class pub over the course of one night.
 
Directed by: Phil Gibbons
