George (Alan Kennedy, left) doesn’t want to hear what his daughter Sophie (Jessica Warriner) has to say in Honour.

When is love real and does it really last? That’s the core theme of Honour, the latest offering from the Old Mill Theatre. 

Written by Joanna Murray-Smith and directed by Dale James, Honour follows a couple’s exhausting and confronting – yet also tender and poignant – journey through life and love.

George and Honour have been married for 32 years with a perfect understanding of each other.

But then a beautiful female journalist, sent to profile columnist George, methodically sets out to challenge that understanding. And George suddenly has eyes for someone else… 

Honour has been produced in more than 35 countries, including productions on Broadway and at London’s Royal National Theatre in London. It also scored a 1996 Victorian Premier's Literary Award.

Honour plays at 8pm October 7, 8, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21 and 22 with 2pm matinees October 9 and 16. Tickets are $25, $20 concession – book at http://oldmilltheatre.com.au/tickets or on 9367 8719.
