Little Gem    by Elaine Murphy

Featured in the 2014 Festival

Synopsis:

Kay’s got an itch that Gem can’t scratch (but maybe Kermit can)… Lorraine attacks a customer at work and her boss wants her to see a psychiatrist...

Amber has fierce bad indigestion and the sambucas aren’t getting rid of it.

Then there’s Paul, who’s just using Amber until he can get to Australia... and there's the hairy man who fancies Lorraine but fails to rise to the occasion… and of course Gem, who doesn’t like the neighbours coming in to ‘mind’ him. And if all that wasn’t bad enough, Little Gem makes his presence felt and well... life is never the same again
