Set
in an ageing mock- Tudor house in Bristol in 1979, Maud and her stay-
at- home son, Mo, pass their days happily together.
He talks to the cat, plays his drums and concocts ridiculous
cocktails for them both while she sits chatting away to the people on
the telly. No amount of coaxing from Maud’s suave son Hedley,
and Mo’s glamorous twin sister, Queenie, will persuade the eccentric
pair to lead a more normal life – even the “michael wave” is a
gadget too far and part of a world neither wishes to inhabit.
This
is a story set when new technology, business morality and social
patterns were changing the nation’s behaviour….
Master
playwright, Peter Nichols (“Privates
on Parade” & “A day in the Death of Joe Egg”), reveals
in his hilarious and deeply touching play that change is not always
for the best and that ‘opening the cage door does not necessarily
imply an escape..’
