Getting there.
In rehearsal and some outdoor shots for the press before we had a set.
I've made four thousand six hundred medium -sized quiches and personally baked two tons of light crust pastry. And what for?'
As a clergy wife, Grace has spent a lifetime on her best behaviour. Now, following the death of her husband Bardolph, she is enjoying the new-found freedom to say and do exactly as she pleases. But the return of her eccentric missionary sister Ruth, together with some disturbing revelations, force Grace to confront the truth of her marriage.
 
With sharp-edged comedy and probing wit, this new play asks whether God can be trusted to do anything right at all. 'Or is the whole thing a divine exercise in trial and error?'
 
'Everett handles the comedy well - Grace's bon mots are very funny ... Penelope Keith (who played Grace in the UK tour) gets all the best lines - and milks them with miraculous comic timing' - Guardian
