I wonder what interested me enough to go and see this? The writer certainly hadn't done anything I'd have known so I guess there were interesting reviews. I think it was the first time I went to the small space at the National Theatre (then called the Cottesloe, now the Dorfman) and I would like to go back to it more often. I remember nothing about the plot but for some reason always remember that Con O'Neill is in it. Turns out it was also my second time of seeing Margaret Tyzack and yet another for Rory Kinnear (plenty more of him to come).
