(N.B: Contains coarse language)
Four close friends re-unite after some years apart to celebrate the upcoming birthday of Maggie.

And a young woman who bears witness to this dramatic snapshot of four lives lived is left… wondering…?

SARAH: (40+) Irish accent required.

MAGGIE: (40+)
A confident and successful business woman who has a penchant for getting her own way is the unstated leader of the group.
ANNIE: (40+)
The tomboy of the four; honest and forthright, her ‘no nonsense’ attitude gets her through life. She runs a horse stable.

A snippet about the writer/director:
Veronica hasn’t decided what she wants to do when she grows up. But in the interim she’s managed to be involved in occupations she loves - from television presenting to teaching, acting and directing for the theatre, and writing. She has written two plays for children one of which she adapted for the screen for which she received a New Screenwriter’s Award from ScreenWest. Veronica admits that the concept of a reunion is far from original, but this is her own take on it coming from her own experience, around which she’s embroidered five disparate fictitious characters and situations. And she’s delighted at the opportunity of seeing the play come to life on the stage.
