Bernard Farrell
Kevin’s Bed is a play of nostalgia, expectations and broken dreams. The setting is the celebration of the golden wedding anniversary of Dan and Doris – a time for them to return to their old house, join in their celebrations, contemplate a life in disarray and remember the joy of their silver anniversary – the Sonny and Cher days, the optimism and the expectations they had of their sons, John and Kevin.
