WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
New Ways in association with Unfit Productions UK Ltd, presents The Door, written by Tony Earnshaw and directed by Anna Adams.
Two men wait in a room with only each other and a banging door for company. They exchange pleasantries, talk, bicker, argue and joke about politics, religion, trivia and consequences. But these men are not strangers; they have history. Somebody died. But who was responsible?
