by Doris Lessing
Starring Barbara Jefford as Anna
and John Turner as Dave, Michael Gough as Harry, Patricia Lawrence as Mary, Jeremy Burnham as Tom, Sharon Cathness as Janet
Anna, an Australian, widowed, thirtyish, lives in an Earls Court bedsitter. She is a freelance writer. In the same house is Mary, slightly older, beginning to depend on the bottle. The men who drop in are 'loners' too. Tom is stolid, rather pompous; Harry, an ageing philanderer with a wife at home; and Dave who, like Anna, is an expatriate...
This is the starting point of Doris Lessing's play.
