A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN

2016

18th - 22nd October

Hutchesons' Grammar School Drama Studio

Synopsis

The setting is Madrid, 1987.  Pepa's lover and co-star for a film dubbing company has written her out of his life via a message on her answering machine.

His long institutionalised and also abandoned wife Lucía is back on the scene, bent on suing him for the lost years of her life. Sexy model Candela has got herself involved with a terrorist.

To further complicate matters, Iván’s latest girl friend is Paulina, Lucía's lawyer, and his son, Carlos, shows up with his girlfriend, Marisa, to rent Pepa's apartment – and as part of her scheme to hold on to Iván, Pepa makes a batch of the gazpacho he loves and laces it with valium.  This being a farce, the gazpacho knocks out the wrong people.
