On the surface everything appears to be perfect in Edward and Flora’s life…
A Slight Ache, tells the story of an older couple living in a rural area, whose marriage is disrupted by an external force – a Matchseller – their lives will never be the same again.
After a distinguished career spanning decades, Maggie Ford (playing Flora), a well respected actor based in Derbyshire is set to return to the stage at the age of 84.  This team of local Derbyshire actors brings this funny, disturbing, and powerful play to the stage, beautifully celebrating Pinter’s fascination with the interloper.
The performance lasts one hour and will be accompanied by a short Q&A with the director and cast.
Maggie Ford on BBC Radio Derby (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0hy6vvs) starting at 1:14:36 – available until 24 Jun 2024
