A play with a bright comic surface and mysterious depths. It is about women
in medicine, in the media and in the office - power and authority in female
hands. It is also about public morality and a struggle between women to see
who should be its guardian. These women are best friends in a professional
world. They are witty and erudite, passionate in pursuit of success and
relentless in their pursuit of passion. They juggle careers, children and lovers.
They are forty and their friendship is about to be tested.
