A feel-good play filled with laughter, tears and romance….together with an
exploration of friendship and the roller-coaster ride of growing old.
Three English ladies in their mid 60s converge upon an apartment in Paris. Each is
looking for a fresh start in life and keen to enjoy everything which France has to
offer…. wine, food, shopping, culture…and for one of them, eternal youth and men.
Nancy, a retired headmistress who has spent so long living for her work and now
that the shackles of professional obligation have been lifted, she intends to enjoy a
new lifestyle. Anna has spent the last 20 years in a loveless marriage acting as
carer for her terminally ill and miserable husband and his death has left her free but
socially timid. Finally there is Raquel who has been unlucky in love and has five
divorces to prove it but has not given up the hope of finding a new and exciting
relationship…or just a new toy-boy.

Add to the mix Madame Boussiron a haughty French landlady who constantly
corrects their French and Charlot, an out of work actor filling in between jobs as her
handyman, fixing the ladies’ apartments and befriending them and you have a
recipe for a very enjoyable evening.
