Overview

Love story or ghost story? This warm, wise and witty play shows a man and a woman meeting, apparently on a park bench, apparently to say goodbye. But who is leaving and why? It seems that for all their squabbling they were happily married for a time, until a road accident landed him in a nursing home. Now he must move away and she must move on. The final piece in the puzzle is blurted out by a well-meaning but weary nurse. Their goodbyes, alas, remain unspoken as she flies off to catch her taxi and he remains "until the memory fades."
