'A proper romantic comedy... Very special indeed'
***** Evening Standard

'EXHILARATING... You float out laughing as if you've just swallowed sunshine on a spoon'
**** The Guardian

It's Midsummer's weekend in Edinburgh. It's raining. Two thirtysomethings are sitting in a New Town bar waiting for something to turn up. He's a failing car salesman on the fringes of the city's underworld and she's a high-powered divorce lawyer with a taste for other people's husbands. She's out of his league and he's not her type at all.

They absolutely should not sleep together. Ever. Ever... Which is why they do.

One of the hits of the 2009 Edinburgh Festival, Midsummer (a play with songs) is a quirky, charming love story of a great lost weekend, by leading Scottish playwright David Greig and top Edinburgh singer/songwriter Gordon McIntyre.

'A joyous romp, part Richard Curtis, part Irvine Welsh'

**** The Scotsman
