In the quiet of the theatre, Rose finds herself thinking back on the events of that morning, the
events of last year, the last 20 years. When did she stop being herself? Rose thinks about her

heart-warming, touching new play that explores a hidden social reality we are only beginning to
understand. Touring nationwide in May & June, thanks to a Touring Award from the Arts Council.
