    The emotion and experience of parents' lives is indelible. The physical loss is heart wrenching, however the human psyche holds the memory bank that overpowers our physical presence. In our mind's eye, the presence of our lost parents is just as real, just as vivid, the emotion even more pronounced, even more valued and cherished. There are no physical boundaries that can intervene in the experience of physically loving and safeguarding such precious relationships. This tribute goes way beyond the realms of such deep seated sentiment. In spite of the physical Adieu, their lives continues to be honored and to be an integral part of the lives of their loved ones here on earth. It is one whose significance  should be not only communicated should be not only communicated but most importantly emulated by mankind.An Author's Republic audio production.

    McCafferty's break-through play, a tender and comic portrait of love, dignity and emotional damage.
    Vera is feisty but fading, Ronnie is washed up and permanently half-drunk. Together they run a grubby pub/hotel in present-day Belfast. It is a refuge for the assorted regulars who wash up there, as well as its rickety owners. Today is a day like many before, turning groggily into a night which might erode everyone's ability to cope with each other, or themselves.
    'McCafferty's writing is wonderfully attentive to the beauty of the real world – the mundane and common place has a poetic elegance which he draws with stunning accuracy and every one of the diverse characters is fully and neatly formed' - London Theatre Guide
