“Losers” is a play about two older lovers, Hanna and Andy, who are trying to make their relationship work while living under the rule of Hanna’s religious mother, Mrs Wilson, and her ally Cissy, the intrusive next door neighbour. Mrs Wilson tries to break up their relationship by constantly ringing her bell, interrupting Hanna and Andy’s passionate interludes.
