This warm-hearted comedy from the author of Up 'n' Under and Teechers was commissioned by the Hull 1992 Festival for the Hull Truck Theatre Company. Bet and Al lead a quiet, humdrum life in their small Yorkshire home until Bet wins a 'Romantic Breaks' competition in a magazine. The prize, a holiday in Paris, represents their first experience abroad and has profound effects on the way they look at the world around them once they return home. They sort out French cuisine, wrestle with their phrasebook, and fend off would-be muggers on the Metro in this hilarious depiction of the English abroad. "...genuinely funny" Times "...brilliantly simple, powerful piece of popular comedy." Guardian
