Distance

A painfully funny play about motherhood (andfatherhood), about keeping control, and about letting go. Good friends should be there for one another - nomatter what. But when Bea returns home after five years abroad, having made a bold choice about herlife, old friends struggle to support her, or even tounderstand. One night in Brighton, things threaten to slide into chaos... Deborah Bruce's play The Distance was premiered at the Orange Tree Theatre, London, in October 2014. It was a finalist for the 2012-13 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.
