I remember this play in particular for its juxtaposition, a week after our visit to Doug and Paul’s house, as a quintessentially gay play.
I remember quite liking the play and being impressed by the cast, while feeling that “we can get all that at home”…or at least, at Doug and Paul’s home.
Excellent cast: Mark Bonner, James McAvoy, Linda Bassett, Sean Gallagher, Michele Austin and Vilma Hollingbery, directed by Kathy Burke.
Charles Spencer in The Telegraph rather liked this one:

Nicholas de Jongh gave it the dreaded Standard blob:

While our friend, Michael Billington, hedged and gave it three stars. I think we sort of went with three stars too.
