Jacq and Kas’s boutique restaurant has gone bust, and telling their oldest friends Adaego and her rich husband Tobin that his investment is toast is only the start of the evening. Cash, class, identity and infidelity are all on the menu. As the last of the expensive wine flows, a dangerous drinking game reveals long-hidden truths and provokes an unspeakable dare.
Alexandra Roach plays Jacq; her screen work includes Becky in Utopia, DS Jo Freers in No Offence, Sanditon, and the bilingual Welsh and English drama Y Golau/The Light in the Hall.
Amit Shah plays Kas; his TV roles include Faisal in Happy Valley and Fred in Crashing, while theatre includes The Comedy of Errors at the National Theatre and East is East (Trafalgar Studios).
