Three women go on a 2-day hike together up a hill, as a memorial to a recently deceased friend. Each woman carries an inscribed stone to place as a monument at the peak. But they have to get there first – and the climb will be as challenging, unexpected, ridiculous and hilarious as life itself…
Among two-time Olivier nominee and Tony® Award nominee Peter Quilter’s previous credits are Glorious!, End of the Rainbow and Judy.
Director Sarah Frankcom is the former Artistic Director of the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester (2008–2019).
