Abi Morgan: Two Plays

Inside a beautiful state residence on the edge of a city, four women wait. They talk: films, Prada, chilli vodka, anything. Outside civil war looms ever nearer. With wit and delight in the unusual, Splendour encompasses both the cruel veneer of our lives and the beating heart within.In Tender, in a city of fast talk and chance encounters, how much faith can we put in other people? Abi Morgan s acerbic play takes a scalpel to modern love and friendship.
