Carriage House

Louisa Hall

Elizabeth, Diana and Izzy, three sisters who have lived a privileged life in suburban America are the pride and joy of their father William. All three were tennis prodigies as children: they seemed destined for greatness.But the idyllic façade masks a family in turmoil - their mother is suffering with early onset Alzheimer's, making Izzy spiral out of control; Diana is failing her career; Elizabeth feels trapped by her domesticity and their father is still in love with his old sweetheart.When William is suddenly taken ill, he reveals that he has lost faith in the things he once held dear: the promise of his gifted daughters and his grandfather's beautiful carriage house, now lost to the family.Devastated by his disappointment and desperate to make him proud, they band together to restore his beloved carriage house, now dilapidated, unloved and under threat of demolition by the neighbourhood association, and to re-build a family in disarray.Touching, intelligent and compassionate, The Carriage House is a drama about family, relationships and forgiveness - and, most importantly, that it is never too late to make amends.
