Helen and Gordon spend their retirement on their Mediterranean balcony, reading and drinking gin, quite a lot of it. Both have moments of dissatisfaction. Is this life changing or merely boredom brought on by age and inactivity? When a younger woman appears in their lives, their comfortable existence is blown apart in an unexpected fashion. Sex, alcohol and physical mayhem have dangerous repercussions for all. A hilarious new play about getting old, moving abroad and the consequences of spontaneous behaviour. The Golden F**king Years takes a look at how people behave – and how others expect them to behave – as they age.
