Jeni loves Val and Val loves Jeni. But is that enough reason to get married, especially when you’re not sure your girlfriend is over her ex, and one of you is not out to your family. Once the United Kingdom approved civil partnerships in 2005, same-sex couples had to ask themselves: “Do I want to make a commitment? Do we want to make a big splash? If so, what sort of splash? Shall it be the pink limousines, or shall we walk? Shall we invite my mother? (If she says no, it will make me feel really awful and spoil the day.) Do I want to be formally tied to another person?” All this and a fourposter bed! Reynolds has directed The Twilight of the Golds, Beautiful Thing and Wrinkles, among others for Diversionary. Funny, touching, timely and ingenious. Underwritten by Joann Clark. Reynolds has directed eight productions for Diversionary, including The Twilight of the Golds, Beautiful Thing and Lot’s Daughters.
