United Players present an engrossing play by Florian Zeller, translated by Christopher Hampton
Directed by Adam Henderson.
André and Madeleine have been in love for over fifty years. This weekend, as their daughters visit, something feels unusual. A bunch of flowers arrives, but who sent it? A woman from the past turns up, but who is she? And why does André feel like he isn’t there at all?
The set for this show is inspired by William Utermohlen who painted throughout an accelerated mental decline – it rejects the cliche of greyness in favour of vibrance even as details become less distinct.
