Description
Just a year into marriage and with a young baby to care for, Joe is one of three million unemployed looking for work every day - when he'd much rather be spending time with his young wife, Madge. Both have secrets from their past that they are reluctant to share with each other, until an unexpected visitor appears who seems to know exactly what the future holds. LIGHTHEARTED INTERCOURSE is a tender, funny and intimate portrayal of a young couple living in 1920s Bolton, adjusting to married life and discussing their fears, anxieties and conflicting needs. It was unearthed from Bill Naughton's personal archive and reworked by David Thacker at the Octagon Theatre, Bolton, where it received its world premiere in October 2012. A first-rate play, full of rare interest and moments of sublime comedy and exquisite sadness - almost in equal measure. - The Stage. First performed at the Octagon Theatre, Bolton,on 4th October 2012
