The Session - Paperback

by Andrew Muir (Author)

One minute I'm in The Elk watching the footie the next minute I'm at the beach with a Polish supermodel. Fucking come on.

Lena meets Robbie. Girl meets Boy. Head over heels. Eyes only for each other. They don't speak the same language, but they both know the language of love, and surely that's enough for a while - until the unspeakable happens and the truth comes spewing out.

As their marriage hurtles towards oblivion, Lena and Robbie desperately attempt to find a common language and save their shared history.

The Session is a heartfelt play about how couples communicate, taking in twenty years of a relationship that is based on misunderstanding and crossed wires. It received its world premiere at Soho Theatre on 3 November 2015.
