This funny, timely and thought-provoking new play will have you talking long after the curtain comes down.

Kris Marshall stars as Teddy, a charming, idealistic university professor at the top of his game, in Ryan Craig's witty and challenging new play.

Together with his wife and colleague Lotty, Teddy is determined to make a difference in their academic world and keep the spark in their relationship alive. As they pick their way through the minefield that is their very modern workplace and even more modern relationship, differences of opinion start to challenge even their more deeply held ideals.

Teddy is played by television favourite Kris Marshall. Kris has starred in some of the most popular films and television series of the last twenty years, with lead roles in Love Actually, My Family and Death in Paradise. His stage roles include Treats opposite Billie Piper, Fat Pig in the West End with Robert Webb and Joanna Page, and the London revival of Glengarry Glen Ross opposite Christian Slater and Robert Glenister.

Eve Ponsonby's recent stage credits include Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in the West End, A Midsummer Night's Dream at Theatre Royal Bath and Shakespeare in Love at the Noel Coward Theatre.
