The Winter Guest archiveWe're in a small Scottish seaside town in winter, the sea frozen over. Eight characters move through the day in pairs: Lily and Chloe off to a funeral, recently widowed Frances besieged by her fierce mother, sixteen year old Alex fascinated by sixteen year old Nita, and Tom and Sam, two boys playing truant from school. All are touched by that invisible presence, death; one of them moves out over the ice with him. This is a lyrical play, funny and sad, about the distances between people, about how they try to cross those distances. It was first performed at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in 1995. This play contains some strong language.
