J. M. Barrie's poignant, one-act play about middle age, young love and human frailty, featuring Judi Dench as Mrs Page, Celia Imrie as Mrs Quickly, Hugh Bonneville as Charles and Bill Patterson as Barrie, and directed by Julia McKenzie. For the first time audiences also hear Barrie’s own exquisite stage directions as part of the performance. These largely unknown directions are masterful works of prose in their own right.
