SYNOPSIS
Ron Patterson has only 111 minutes left to live and he invites the kids around for sausage rolls, saladas and a bit of quality time. As he attempts to tie up the loose ends of his life, all the juicy neuroses of his very dysfunctional family come to the fore.
This play is a commentary on modern family life and a study of the human psyche. It is one in which we can all see aspects of ourselves and our own families. It is also very, very funny!
