Written in the early 1990s, this three-hander centres on a family of MR, MRS and SON, quite anonymous, but the forces in this play are quite specific. The son has been booted out of home when very young, on the suspicion that he is queer. He returns a couple of decades later, hoping for reconciliation, but is ruthlessly ejected again, especially by a monster mother. Among other things, there are resonating fascist undertones.
