Felix Humble, bumbling Cambridge astrophysicist and cricket enthusiast, returns to the family home following the sudden death of his father. Flora, his difficult and demanding mother is determined to make a fresh start with George, a brash family friend. Secrets come tumbling out as Felix tries to come to terms with the past and what is yet to come.

This warm and touching comedy was first performed at the National Theatre in 2001 – winning the Critics’ Circle Theatre Award for Best New Play and the People’s Choice Best New Play Award.
