Synopsis: | Jack Diamond is a bachelor Barber in his late 50s. He's been a Barber all his life and still lives a bit in the past, so is a little prudish. He is struggling to make ends meet and, to help the gradually failing business, a regular customer suggests taking on an assistant and going Unisex - shock, horror! Eventually Jack has to agree so he advertises in the local paper for an assistant. Little did he realise just how much change would come about by having a woman in his life - and business! (Won first prize in the Sale Festival New Playwriting Competition, 2008.) | |||||

Synopsis: | Jed Roberts is a man with a problem - his wife Marilyn. She is becoming more and more obsessed with keeping the house clean and tidy. Jed tries to accept this gradually emerging trait of his wife's, but the strain begins to tell. Their teenaged children realise that none of their friends have mothers quite like theirs and they, too, become less comfortable with her but defend her against their friends' ridicule. The play monitors Marilyn's increasingly difficult behaviour, showing how the family tries to adjust and cope before events take an unexpected and sinister turn. . . | |||||
