Synopsis
A two-act play set in London during a bout of inclement weather. There are but three characters, Judah, a London marketing executive; Emily, Judah's wife, a professional woman and mother; and Cecil, her assistant at work, a young man twenty years her junior with whom she is having an affair. We meet the three just as she is about to walk out on her husband at Cecil's prompting, and the play deals with what happens when Judah confronts Emily and Cecil unexpectedly on the very evening when they mean to become a couple.
