"A wry, funny and touching meditation on loneliness, that private shame of the singleton in the era of the dating app and of fraudulent boasting on social media . written with a real depth of insight, humour, compassion and a keen sense of the ridiculous..." The Independent

It's the early hours of the morning in the aftermath of Laura's housewarming party. Danny, 42, divorced and living with his mother, is the last remaining guest. The flat is in a mess and so are they. One more drink?

This sharp and astute two-hander takes an intimate look in real-time at the first fragile moments of risking your heart and taking a chance. Both comedic and tender, it asks questions about mutual loneliness and human connections.

Beginning premiered at the National Theatre, London in October 2017.

This new Modern Classics edition features an introduction by Sarah Grochala.
