<DIV><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">The play revolves around a trio of terminally ill patients, each of whom lives in a separate cottage at a hospice. Each is being interviewed about the process of dying. For most of the play, the interviewer is unseen, which means that characters speak directly to the members of the audience, as if they were the interviewer.<SPAN> </SPAN>The first dying person is Joe, a middle-aged, blue-collar family man. Joe seems well-adjusted and has accepted that he is dying. However, his wife Maggie is in denial and has not told their son Steve about his father's condition.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">The second dying person is Brian, a bisexual English professor. He is being cared for by his lover, Mark. They receive a visit from Brian's flamboyant, slightly trashy ex-wife Beverly. Beverly's presence lifts Brian's spirits but rankles Mark.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN lang=EN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><FONT face="Times New Roman">The final dying person is Felicity, an elderly, cantankerous, somewhat senile woman, who is cared for by her long-suffering daughter Agnes. Felicity is in great pain but refuses to die because she remains hopeful that her favorite daughter, Claire, will return to her soon.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
