Lovesong

from Stables Theatre Hastings · host Stables Theatre Hastings

The story of one couple; William and Margaret/Billy and Maggie. Past and present collide and entwine as we see their life together unfold. From the early days of their marriage through to their later years when the reality of a terminal illness offers another choice, replacing the option of a drawn-out, painful death with an unexpected hope for the future. "There are going to be moments like this where I have to know you can jump when I ask you to jump. And you did." You’ll cry, but you’ll smile too, at this beautiful play that is by turns funny, hopeful, painful, bittersweet, and ultimately life-affirming.
