Better Yesterday archive'I had to check the newspapers to check on my own husband'. One evening in 1977, married stage actors Harold and Sylvia return home after performing in Macbeth. Over the course of the night, they come to blows over the exhausting pressures of fame, faithfulness, and emotional game-playing. In an exchange that swings between kittenishness and cruelty, the couple discuss overprotective neighbours, voyeuristic headlines, lewd limericks, method acting, seafood risotto, and the exploitative public and press. However, as the friction between their personalities starts to generate heat, confessions are made and dark secrets brought to light. Harold and Sylvia must face up to the subjects they have always avoided, digging to the heart and guts of their relationship and unwrapping the bandages of untreated wounds.
