See Ginette McDonald starring in the strictly limited return season of My Brilliant Divorce, a wittily observant, achingly funny and heart-wrenchingly real one-woman tour de force. A sell-out in 2008, this comedy explores what life is like for Angela, recently dumped by her accountant husband for a younger model. Emotionally bereft and with self-confidence at an all time low, Angela slowly and at times painfully rebuilds her life. She finds herself adrift in a sea of weird sexual encounters, sneaky solicitors, phone-in counsellors, a bad case of hypochondria and the spectre of poverty. Should she fight to keep her husband? Or should she sign the final papers and move on?
