Matt and Steph are hungover. Their wedding is in a week. Things are under control. Mostly.
But when their best friend Rachel arrives unannounced, she reveals a secret that threatens to unravel everything. Now they must deal with the consequences of their messy nights and bad decisions.
Who do you blame when your life is derailed? And how far will you go to get it back on track?

Press
“Jeda de Bri and Finbarr Doyle have written a truly terrific representation of an aspect of contemporary life, with sure-fire dialogue and wonderfully layered levels of rage, fear and disintegrating trust. It’s a complex, unresolved treatment of a very modern insoluble problem; a serious, extraordinarily well-made play that is as thought-provoking as it is gripping.” Sunday Independent [break]
[stars-4] “Provocative and deeply human” The Arts Review [break]
“An agitated portrait of assured mutual destruction” The Irish Times [break]
[stars-5] “Superb… Tryst is unmissable” Meg.ie [break]
