FROM THE BARN THEATRE ARCHIVE

Good Things

By Liz Lochhead
Directed by Darren Barsby
12th – 20th May 2017

A charity shop of discarded, unwanted items - but that's no way to talk about the staff!

This romantic comedy about finding love the second (or third or fourth) time round is from a writer dubbed Scotland’s greatest living dramatist.

Suddenly single and with the dreaded ‘big five-0’ staring her in the face, Susan – a charity shop volunteer – also has to cope with a father in his second childhood, a daughter in the throes of aggravated adolescence and an ex who, unfortunately, still has the power to wound.

Set on three different days in one year – 6th January, Valentine’s Day and Christmas Eve – Good Things is a poignant, hilarious play with a lot to say about finding love later in life.

Be prepared to laugh, cry, laugh and then start again. This is what really goes on in those charity shops…!
