4,000 Miles by Amy Herzog at The Print Room

Following performances at the Ustinov Studio at Bath Theatre Royal, 4,000 Miles, by Amy Herzog, transfers to London's The Print Room, in Notting Hill Gate, west London, from 14 May to 1 June 2014.

Starring Sara Kestelman (Vera), Daniel Boyd (Leo), Jing Lusi (Amanda), Jenny Hulse (Bec).

Directed by James Dacre, designed by Simon Kerry, lighting by Richard Howell, sound by Adrienne Quartly.

It's the middle of the night when 21 year-old Leo arrives on the doorstep of the West Village apartment where his feisty 91 year-old grandmother Vera lives. She's an old Communist who lives alone; he's a latter-day hippie, recently returned from a cross-country bike trip which ended traumatically. Over the course of a single month, these unlikely roommates infuriate, bewilder, and ultimately connect. When Leo's old girlfriend shows up and he begins to reveal the mysterious events of his journey, Leo and Vera discover the narrow line between growing up and growing old.
