Synopsis

Set in the 90s not only is a spotlight shone on the trends and developments of the era, but the universal issues of relationships which remain relevant regardless of generation.

Suzannah, Maggie and Janet have been colleagues and best friends for years. But their relationship is about to be severely challenged by husbands, lovers, children, work … and a new drug! They work together, publishing a high-quality magazine, and have always helped each other to deal with life’s crises.

The magazine is preparing to print an article about Miriam Roth, a high-profile female medical researcher, who is conducting a trial of a drug for PMS. This drug may or may not be responsible for birth defects. The play considers what is moral/ethical and how modern people deal with difficult situations. The underlying issue is not clear-cut and you are likely to change your mind, as do the play characters several times as various facts are revealed.
