Six young people from around the world, including two UWA students, spend one glorious summer together on a Greek island in 1983. They are beautiful, adventurous, idealistic and believe that the world is theirs for the taking.

Fast-forward to 2009: These footloose and fancy-free types have turned into successful and driven people who are juggling careers, families and mortgages and are grappling with middle age. Each in their own way, they struggle with dreams, dilemmas, feelings and regrets. Will a reunion on their magical Greek island bring them together, or tear them apart?

This new play by Hannie Rayson is for baby boomers and all those who love them, as it delves into this special generation with humour, warmth and sympathy.
