Type:	Play
Written By:	David Harrower

Synopsis:	Una, a 27-year-old woman, comes to visit Ray, a 55-year-old man, at his office. They are clearly not comfortable in other’s company, and we soon find out why. Fifteen years earlier, Ray seduced Una over the course of three months and finally took her away to a hotel for the weekend. Ray spent several years in prison for statutory rape, and Una was ostracized from her community. Now she has found him by accident, and the play delves into their complex feelings for each other. Though clearly, and by any definition, sexual abuse, their relationship is just as clearly a love story, albeit an extremely disturbing one.
