Description

Stephen Beresford's poignant play explores the complex relationships between fathers and sons. When Patrick is eight years old, his absent father returns unexpectedly for a brief but memorable encounter. Years later, Patrick reflects on this meeting and the events of his father's life, revealing a journey marked by grandiose plans, aching disappointments, and audacious self-delusion.

This powerful play delves into the gifts and burdens of inheritance, as well as the puzzle of human relationships. Written for solo performance, it was part of Old Vic: In Camera, a series of live performances streamed from London in 2020. This edition includes an introduction by director Matthew Warchus.
