This play takes the subject of a doting mum who finds it hard to accept that her son is leaving the fold to get married. Betty, a passionate 50-something housewife from Leeds, is this women. On the morning of her son Mark's wedding, she retreats to the loft where she re-lives her long-gone-youth and the affair with the man she might have married, and gradually reconciles herself to the imminent departure of Mark. Her exile rejuvenates her sense of self-worth, and ultimately she escapes the men who have prevented her from fulfilling her potential. This hear-felt portrait of a women who takes a stand is touching and life-affirming.
