A new play by Alan Hopgood starring Charles 'Bud' Tingwell.

George Parker's wife has recently died from Alzheimer's. He has taken early retirement to care for her, and we now see him adjust to a new life.

The play is touching, funny and true.

"He may be in the autumn of his years, but Tingwell remains at the summit of his powers. He adjusts his character's emotional journey with a sureness of touch that provides an enriching experience for the audience" - The Age, Melbourne.
