Description

It's my birthday. All I wanted was a bottle of Claret and a couple of winners at Sandown. Instead, retired actress Margot Buchanan receives three separate visitors: her ex-husband Leo, an ageing film star fresh from a punch-up with a reporter, Leo's current wife Judy, and his latest mistress Sadie, an aspiring Juliet seeking Margot's acting advice. Just as the inevitable fireworks kick off, Leo suffers a fatal heart attack. Then the kissogram shows us... Happy Birthday Me is a touching and very funny comedy in one act based on the author's earlier full-length play, Laying the Ghost.
