Two of a Kind (Acting Edition S.)

"Wally" Wallis, an old sea-dog, rebellious, independent and chaotic, is by no means the perfect retirement home resident. When his room-mate, Potts, dies and is replaced with the staid, dull. upright and polite George Fairbrother, war is instantly declared. Wally appals George by cooking a steak in their room and later, George incenses Wally be dividing the room in half with sticky tape. This confirms for Wally that the only way left for him to go is out. Before his escape with Potts' ashes, however, Wally reaches a level of understanding with George and shares some tender moments with May, another resident, who has a soft spot for both men. This play is a celebration of the resilience of older people who are determined not to give in without a fight.
