Music | None. |
Style | Two-act play (but on the shorter side of that form). Single domestic set. Contains mild swearing. |
Synopsis | Amanda worries that her children, Tom and Laura, are too ambitious. Tom sets Laura up with a guy from his company, but the evening takes a few twists that no one was expecting. Luckily it all goes over Amanda's head, and she tells herself she's got a happy ending after all. |
