Time Out says Rate it
Whichever way you spin it, there's nothing remotely sexy about a Jewish old people's home in Hendon, and a pair of sixty year-old women, even if they are lesbians, in a retirement crisis. But writer Stewart Permutt pulls any number of stinging and salient themes from his seemingly drab setting. A devout Muslim nurse, caring for an intransigent, eighty year-old Jewish milliner, Stella, nursing nothing but contempt for her lesbian daughter, Helen, raises beautifully nuanced questions about the conditionality of love, phobias, and religious racism. Some of the acting is very good, some much less solid, and Anthony Biggs's cluttered staging sags disappointingly in energy and focus, particularly in the final scenes. But this is a flawed first outing of a rare, real and heart-warming find.
