Description
I'm not afraid, Tom. Sooner or later your life becomes parched. Its rivers run thin. Its mountains have melted into the distance as blue and cool as memories.
An ordinary couple with an extraordinary love relive their darkest secrets, deepest passions and heart-breaking truths.
Throughout all the moments of doubt that life has thrown at them, as long as they can be together, they wouldn't change a thing. This is their final opportunity to say all the things they never had the chance to say before.

Reviews / Votes
It's romantic, vigorous, erotic and chest-crushingly sad, in equal measure. -- Belinda Dillon * Exeunt Magazine * The audience were entranced from the first moment. Warm, honest and touching, Epsilon have created a triumph -- Claire Arnold * Audience Review * Brutality and tenderness are strange but seductive bedfellows in Gary Henderson's two-hander, which evokes a loamy sense of place ... and an even stronger appreciation of a long but not always untroubled marriage. Time is deceptive in Henderson's dramatic world ... this brief hour encapsulates a lifetime of love and disappointments, of resentments and betrayals, loss and the repeated discovery and delight of two people in each other's bodies. -- Lyn Gardner * Guardian *More details
