Hovering

Written by Ron Aldridge

Giles Shenton, one of the country's leading storytellers, follows up the highly acclaimed one-man productions of Three Men in a Boat, Old Herbaceous and My Dog's Got No Nose with this poignant comedy about a person trapped between life and death after a terrifying car accident.

Stuck in hospital waiting to see if his wife survives, the husband shares with us the agony, pain and desperation of not knowing if he will see her again, while at the same time mulling over such things as football, sensible slippers, surveyors and his girlfriend's periods. 

This ghostly comedy by Ron Aldridge is funny, lyrical and haunting. You'll never look at a hospital waiting room the same way again!
