AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE.
Alice and Michael met six years ago. Three years later their daughter Lily was born. Now, in a Yorkshire meadow, just past midnight, they’re having an argument. Because Alice is cold, she’s tired, and Michael won’t stop telling her that she died twelve hours ago.
Dealing with themes of loss, grief and heartache, this intimate portrayal of a relationship forces us to examine our own lives, Liam Borrett’s script seamlessly weaves past and present – switching without warning from comedy to tragedy and back again.
Praise for This Is Living by Liam Borrett:
“Gently affecting piece, full of compassion’ – The Times
“Borrett’s play balances on a tightrope between comedy and heartbreak… speckled with genuinely romantic and heart-wrenching moments” – A Younger Theatre
