Description

After the performances 'Lady Macbeth' and 'The 39 Steps', Marios Mettis directs the play of Nick Payne "One Day When We Were Young"

'I am scared, that once this war is over, and I am sent home, that you won't be here. That you will have left.'

Leonard and Violet, young, restless and in love, spend their first night together knowing it may also be their last. It's 1942 and, in a hotel room in Bath, they dream of their future while preparing for Leonard's departure to the war. But the bombs begin to fall and their world will never be the same again. In the year 2002, the couple look back at what might have been.

The play is centered upon the changing relationship between the lead characters Violet and Leonard. Within this timeframe, Payne documents the evolving nature of their love and the inevitable obstacles they face throughout six decades of rapid personal and economic change.
