Jonah and Otto: Two men wander dangerously into each others’ lives in this stunning drama from celebrated UK playwright Robert Holman in its NY premiere. **** Time Out
In 2003, Jonah is 26, Otto, 62 – two men different in every way. But not everything is what it seems when their lives collide one summer's night in a mysterious walled garden on the south coast of England. As their stories of love and loss unravel in front of us and memories of the past unturned come to light, on parting, neither can be the same again.Robert Holman's "intricately layered creation, brimming with emotional wonder" (The Independent) is a deeply humane, funny and ultimately haunting exploration of what it is to be alive.
