Synopsis
If It Don't Hurt It Ain't Love
Published by Samuel French Inc
2 Male 2 Female
Terrie, a charming and daffy orderly, loves her out of a kind of obligation, an acceptance of her fate
Cathy's mother is running away from the situation, so afraid of her daughter's impending death that she builds a wall of fear, not letting any honest emotion through
These two masks are like the illness itself - they are both being torn from within
It is Cathy herself, learning how to live and to die, who helps in the reconciliation of the two people she loves most
A gallant, touching, unexpectedly humorous play - timeless, and with a universal appeal
