Mouth to mouth (nhb modern plays)

A brilliantly acerbic tragi-comedy from the author of My Night With Reg. At a homecoming party for Dennis and Laura's teenage son, the reappearance of an old family friend throws up secrets from the past and paves the way for fresh disaster. Kevin Elyot pins down the pretension and self-centredness of his characters with unerring and hilarious accuracy. 'Marvellous... subtle and haunting' - Daily Telegraph 'A portrayal of loss and pain whose power and subtlety will haunt you long after you leave' - Sunday Times
