Synopsis of A Friend of a Friend
Written by Tom Carver and directed by Helen Young, A Friend of a Friend is an original four-act play about relationships that go wrong. The play opens with Troy, a roughneck and Billy, a ne’er-do-well, bantering with Liz, a small town barmaid about making it big. Twenty years later at a nightclub in Vancouver, Troy, now a successful musician has one final show before heading to Nashville with a recording contract and signing bonus. Seemingly out of the blue, Billy, Troy’s ex-wife Bev, Liz and her no-good brother, Snout, reappear in Troy’s life.
