DOLLY WEST'S KITCHEN Bingley Little Theatre Politics, religion and sex are at the core of Bingley Little Theatre's this production.
For Irish playwright Frank McGuinness brings to the kitchen table the issues some people still don't talk about.
The play is set in Buncrana, County Donegal, McGuinnesses's hometown, during the Second World War and the horrors of war are interwoven with the lives of an Irish family.
The action takes place mainly in the kitchen. Comfortablyoff widow Rima West lives in a large house with her two daughters, Dolly, who owned a restaurant in Florence until she fled Italy in 1939 and Esther, who is unhappily married to Ned. Troubled son Justin and Ned are in the neutral Irish Army.
The family has its own conflicts to face as their lives are transformed with the arrival of allied troops across the border in Derry.
Directed by Peter Stansfield, Dolly West's Kitchen is a moving thought-provoking play. It runs until Saturday.
