A Month of Sundays
Free-Rain Theatre Company presents
A Month of Sundays

18 Oct 2013 to 3 Nov 2013

This delightful comedy by Bob Larbey, the author of the TV series "As Time Goes By" is directed by Anne Somes.

Set in a rest home for the aged, this play revolves around two residents: Cooper (Graham Robertson), who has voluntarily left his family to avoid the indignity of depending on them, and his friend Aylott (Oliver Baudert), who's slowly drifting into senility. While there are strict rules imposed on the residents, Cooper refuses to fall into passivity, flirting constantly with Nurse Wilson (Joanne Richards ) and making escape plans with Aylott. Both Cooper and Alyott handle the difficulties of growing old and the painful ritual of family visits and empty condescension with dignity, humour and wit.

 Supported by an outstanding cast, Lainie Hart as Cooper’s daughter, Julia, Paul Jackson as Peter and Micki Bennett as Mrs Baker, “A Month Of Sundays” will lift the spirits and leave you with a warm feeling that reinforces our humanity.
