Panto Boy

Agnus wants a second chance on stage. Her partners want her to grow old quietly. Will their relationship survive or fizzle out like a damp sparkler?

“A couple who perform together stay together,” says the lodger a romantic at heart who set about persuading Lesley to perform. Lesley seizing the chance to ruin Agnus’s performance jumps at the chance.

Will the two women collide their blood boiling for revenge or will performing together bring out the best in them?
