The Play

Robert returns to Ireland after 35 years to meet Cait, the woman who, in one day, captured his heart during a James Joyce Ulysses walking tour. Dancing backwards through time the older couple retraces their steps to look with hindsight a their younger selves. On that fateful day 35 years before, they found themselves at a fork in the road and now must reflect on the aftermath of the youthful decisions they made. This 'time travel' story explores their journey with love, wit, revelation and resignation.
