Description - After Dinner by Andrew Bovell

'... an Australian comedy of sharp and black social comment, full of wry insights ...' —Mick Barnes, Sun-Herald

A suburban pub bistro on Friday night. Three office workers—Dympie, who needs to control everything, Paula, who lets her, and the recently widowed Monika, are desperately seeking a good night out. At an adjoining table sit Gordon, recently abandoned by his wife, and Stephen, looking for something more than the usual onenight stand.

As the night proceeds, inhibitions and social restraint are abandoned, exposing the foibles, pain and humour of the characters’ inner lives. It is an acutely observed but tender-hearted account of relationships and behaviour.
