It’s Sylvia and Marek’s wedding. Over the course of a hot summer’s day, a family gathers to welcome a newcomer into their midst. But as the beer and vodka flows and the guests hit the dancefloor, passions boil over and the limits of love are tested.
Described by one reviewer as ‘Chekhov on Heineken’, the play blends humour and tragedy, exploring complex family dynamics, love, loss and the scars left by decades of social and economic history. Beth Steel’s new play is a hilarious and heartbreaking portrayal of a larger than life family struggling to come to terms with a changing world.
