    About this ebook

    Retired entrepreneur William invites his four grown-up children to visit his beautiful converted barn in the Welsh Borders to celebrate his birthday. They all join with William’s carer Solomon to toast another year, but each of them has their own business in mind...

    Warm, intelligent, witty and moving, Family Business is the world premiere production of Julian Mitchell’s new play, looking at the complex relationships that underpin family life.‘a very clever play, and a witty one as well…The succession of one-liners flows copiously’ 4 stars - What's On Stage

    ‘Julian Mitchell is part of a vanishing breed: the fastidious craftsman who knows how to explore ideas while generating suspense. It is clear that the play is, in part, a modern-day Lear… immensely watchable’ – The Guardian
