Past and present, broken vows, love, lust and life collide in a brilliantly original and award-winning comedy directed by Theresa Heskins.
Bumbling Felix Humble may be an astrophysicist with a brain the size of Saturn; but when it comes to life he's bottom of the class. And when he leaves his search for the unified Theory of Everything to return home following his bee-keeping father's demise, he finds himself in a real hornets nest.
His impossible mother has taken next-doorneighbour George as a lover.The beloved family bees have been exiled. And with the appearance of a visitor from his own romantic past, it soon becomes clear that life in the Humble hive will never be the same again.
‘Rich, original, intelligent, funny and touching . . .
I can’t recommend this lovely play too highly.’
Daily Telegraph
'This is a marvellous play: sad, very sad; funny, very, very funny . . .'
