A riveting play showing the masculine and feminine perspectives of a dissolving marriage. Matthew and Nina have been married for 12 years. He is 40-years-old and a successful publisher. She is 38, a journalist and has not written anything since she had children. When Matthew suggests she writes a biography on a celebrity, she throws herself at the projects with a consuming enthusiasm. Based on this story, a fascinating play about love, deceit and sex, about falling in love and being abandoned is built up. During act one, we follow the story from Matthews point of view, whilst act two is Nina’s version of the events.
