Description Originally performed at Sydney's Nimrod Theatre, this short play examines the disintegration of a relationship after one partner decides to end it. Ron Blair quotes Stendahl at the head of his play: "But love is like a fever which comes to two people at the same time: the first one to be cured is diabolically bored by the other". Presented with "The Christian Brothers", another short play by Blair.
