Spontaneous, unaffected and thrillingly real, innocent discussion becomes an exploration of private fantasy, hidden anxiety, personal mythology and the most inexplicable behaviour
What lies behind the most unconscious gesture?

"Holiday is great theatre-funny and light as air on the surface, with philosophical depths that will niggle you long after you leave" ~ The Age
