A snippet of lovely feedback about the script;

​

!An enchanting, bittersweet snapshot of two people still in love after a lifetime, coming to the end
of life itself - at least in this dimension. There is a real sense of this couple having been best
friends and partners in crime all their lives together, going on one last caper together!

​
