A comedy about the menopause - if that's not a contradiction in terms.

Lizzie is 48 years old, married to the faithful and loyal Roddy (even though she鈥檚 aware that makes him sound like a dog), with two grown children and a nearly paid off mortgage. ....So why does she feel like she's dying?

Boiling Point is about the menopause, but it鈥檚 not only about the menopause. It鈥檚 also about being lost and found. It鈥檚 about love, loyalty, bio chemistry and the human condition.

And it鈥檚 about the profound value - and danger - of very old friends.

Lizzie ..... Wendy Seager
Roddy ..... Stuart McQuarrie
Donna ..... Gabriel Quigley

Directed by Gaynor Macfarlane
