Borrowing Time is a play about family life and relationships - between husband and wife, father and daughter, brother and sister

As history moves on, each generation is faced with new challenges and new perceptions of the truth

"This three act elegy to home counties sensibility ... charts several crossroads in the lives of father and daughter, via middle age and amnesia back to the first flush of youth. From semi-detached adultery to nostalgic senility, each commuter-belt crisis is etched out with considerable care. In a conscientious and compassionate script, affectionate yet authentic dialogue distinguishes playwright and players alike" ~ William Cook, City Limits

"...marvellous, touching vignettes of interaction between two players..." ~ Carol Sarler, Sunday Times

"Full of wit, charm and 'true truths'... a script full of eloquent observations about 'love, death, marriage and the certainties of youth' ... a wonderful play that has both moments of irresistible pleasure and pain. An utterly uplifting evening" ~ Rick Jones, Time Out
