Split Decision, A

Synopsis:
An established marriage on the verge of divorce, but could seeking some professional intervention bring resolve for either party? Inspired by Marriage Guidance by Stanley Odd and written in verse, McAllister's new satirical comedy examines a dysfunctional relationship facing a vital decision that will change both their future forever. Praise for Hindsight by Keir McAllister, Fringe 2013. 'I for one, could not take my eyes off the stage' **** (Edinburgh Festivals Magazine). 'the script is well written . . . plenty of twists and turns, as well as comedy to keep the audience on its toes' **** (One4Review.co.uk).
