Midsummer Secrets

An Evening of One Acts

Daddy's Gone a Hunting by H. Connolly

&

Penalty by Stephen Smith

7th -11th July 2015

 

Daddy's Gone a Hunting

Liz and Simon are a young couple who have just had a baby and live on the ninth floor of a high rise. Liz is still something of a mystery to Simon, frustrated by her untidiness and her inability to be more open about her past. When Simon leaves the flat to visit his mother we find out why when Liz’s obsessive boyfriend from her university days bursts in threatening her and the baby. A light domestic comedy that quickly changes into a very tense drama.
