The Jarretts are an ordinary American family, living in Chicago. Calvin is a determined, successful provider, and Beth an organised, efficient wife. They had two sons – Conrad and Buck – but now they have one.
Judith Guest's best-selling 1976 novel takes the reader into their lives, to share their pain, misunderstandings and ultimate healing.
The novel was filmed, in 1980, by Robert Redford, with Donald Sutherland, Mary Tyler Moore and Timothy Hutton playing the family. The film won 4 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Supporting Actor. Nancy Gilsenan's stage adaptation is a faithful translation of this much-loved book.
CAST INCLUDES Callum Logan, Fahad Farooque, Lyn Wilson and Steve Turner
