‘The love of money is the root of all evil‘
Following the sudden death of their long-estranged father Charles Forbes, his three adult children are advised that to have a chance of inheriting a share of his sizeable estate they must spend one night together at his remote Norfolk cottage. The Will is due to be read the following day.
Each of them is badly in need of money and turns up at the cottage, only to find that it’s decorated with furniture and paintings which they’re sure their dad would have hated. In addition, there are several photographs of him with a young woman whom none of the family have ever seen before and the stress of the situation exacerbates their already strained relationships.
However, the arrival of the young woman in the photographs the following morning is the catalyst for some shocking revelations as long-buried family secrets are uncovered.
This brand-new play is a tense family drama, full of twists and turns.
