First World War veterans Henri, Gustave and Philippe spend their autumn years reflecting upon the peculiar circumstances of their equally peculiar nursing home.
Will Philippe survive Sister Madeleine's obsession with birthdays? Can Gustave ever get past the front gate? How will Henri woo his young school teacher? And is there more to the stone dog than meets the eye?
Time is running out for our three ex-Musketeers, until they hatch a daring plan to sieze the day: their own great escape from the nursing home!
Tom Stoppard's Olivier Award winning translation of Gerald Sibleyras' gentle comedy sparkles with the master playwright's trademark wit and wordplay.
