As Real as Anything

By

Andrew Cartmel

​

Gwen and Duncan are happily married - well happily enough. They were a theatrical power couple, Duncan the director and Gwen his producer. But both of thier careers have begun to falter.

 

Enter Jake and Rosie. Jake is a playwright and Rosie an actress. They to are married and have seen better days. Now they are joining forces with Gwen and Duncan to turn the clock back, with a revival of Jake's first play, the one that made Rosie a star.

 

But as they drink to the success of this new venture, they are thinking the same thing...

The last time they worked together on this play, Rosie and Duncan had a scorching affair.

 

Of course things will be different this time....

 

As Real as Anything is a sexy, poetic and ultimately deeply moving tale of love and infidelity.

 

From Andrew Cartmel, the creative mastermind behind classic Doctor Who and the Vinyl Detective series.
