When the two clashing personalities encounter each other late at night, their uneasy domestic arrangement is tested and deep secrets revealed from their past…
Walkies Time for a Black Poodle. Ella has moved up in the world. From a working-class background, she and her husband Bob have made it and moved to a posh suburb out of town.

Knocking on the Wall. Former teacher Dorothy has had a nervous breakdown, and moved in with her sister, Isobel. The plumber is due to visit, but Isobel has had to leave Dorothy alone. When young Alec, the plumber’s apprentice, turns up instead, he and Dorothy strike up a very unlikely connection…
From the author of Men Should Weep, one of the most iconic Scottish plays of the twentieth century, the three plays that make up Knocking on the Wall display Ena Lamont Stewart’s profound sympathy, humour and razor-sharp social observation.
