Erica Murray's play examines family dynamics through a single Sunday afternoon in rural Meath. Meredith, recovering from hip surgery, navigates her daughter Noelle's strict caregiving while pursuing online dating and a flirtation with her neighbour Terry. When Meredith's grandson Lorcan arrives under house arrest, the day unravels into a cascade of revelations that force the family to confront buried resentments and long-standing conflicts. The production explores themes of aging, independence, and the messy realities of familial obligation through dark comedy and emotional depth.
