MISCONCEPTION by Bill Dare
Edinburgh Fringe: Assembly Rooms, 5-30 August
Two old friends and one woman who needs to conceive - tonight. In this comedy of moral confusion love, parenthood, sex and friendship are examined by a comedy writer at the top of his game. Laced with wit and humour, the drama twists and turns in compelling fashion, and the laughs come thick and fast.
Cast:
SIÂN REEVES (Cutting It, Emmerdale),
STEWART WRIGHT (Doc Martin, Wild West),
TOBY LONGWORTH (Extras, The IT Crowd)
Directed by Katie McAleese (Dream of the Dog at the Trafalgar Studios, transferred from Finborough Theatre).
Written by Bill Dare, BBC comedy producer (Spitting Image, I've Never Seen Star Wars), author and playwright. Misconception is Bill's second play, after Touch at the Edinburgh Fringe 2007.
Press for Touch by Bill Dare:
"The dialogue crackles and fizzes in compelling fashion." Metro
"Dare's writing is rattling and quick. Laced with wit and humour... Dark, poignant ... [and] heart-warming."
