Summer Again

Synopsis:
David Cregan's last play reveals a passionate concern with Iraq, global capitalism and environmental decay. the story hinges on the determination of country-bred, 91-year-old Toby to buy part of the vast, adjacent garden belonging to Gerald, a lecherous entrepreneur. For inexplicable reasons, Toby's family - including his dithering son, actressy daughter-in-law and ecologically concerned grandson - think the purchase will be the death of him and do everything in their power to stop it. ariadne, the daughter-in-law, even offers to sleep with Gerald to stop the sale; although, since she is an anti-war marcher and he a rabid right-winger, it makes for a prickly liaison. Cregan's model is clearly Shaw's Heartbreak House: another country-garden play in which the leisured classes confront naked power in the shadow of global catastrophe.
