Overview
Every relationship reaches a crossroad some time.
As dawn breaks, Maggie is heating some milk and Gary wonders what she’s doing out of bed.
Maybe it’s time for an honest conversation – but how much honesty can this marriage take?
Following their five-star production of Beginning, which played sold-out runs at the National Theatre and in the West End, writer David Eldridge and director Polly Findlay reunite for this raw, touching and funny portrait of a 21st-century marriage.
Middle is the second of three plays by David Eldridge to explore love and relationships.
