Synopsis
Lovers
Published by Samuel French Ltd
1 Male 2 Female
There's Maureen, his wife of nearly 20 years, whom he helped through a breakdown that followed the death of their infant son
There's Anna, his lover, with whom he secretly lived while working in London during the week
And there's Bob, a friend and father-figure to Michael, who tends the graveyard and harbours his own deep feelings of grief
All three loved Michael and all three have reason to mourn
But the secrets that exist between them impede the comfort they might otherwise draw from each other
This one-act play for two women and one man reflects poignantly on love, loss, and beginning again
