When You Cure Me
Rachel and Peter are seventeen. They have been going out for six months and it's love's young dream. Then Rachel gets ill. She doesn't want her mum to fuss; she doesn't want Alice to pretend she's her best friend; and she certainly doesn't want Alice's boyfriend telling bad jokes at her bedside. The only person she wants is Peter, but Peter doesn't know what he wants. Premiered at The Bush Theatre, London, When You Cure Me is a bittersweet and poignant tale of love and misunderstanding - and discovering that what you say and do can be very different from what you think and feel.
