“I try not to listen
But I don’t think he’s realised
Just drinks his pint
Like everything’s alright.”
Stash is an artist who works in a pub. Steve is her boyfriend. Their relationship is in trouble and they want to tell you how it happened. In unison, if they can.
When one thoughtless comment knocks the pair out of sync, the fallout causes a rift that only deepens over the course of a summer. Hear both sides of the story, intricately rendered with a dynamic sound design from Jenny O’Malley.
heartfelt, genius, and beautifully executed.
