The Happy Couple
by Naoise Dolan· 2023
Charting the lives of the soon-to-be-married couple, the best man, the bridesmaid and a guest for an approaching wedding.
Luke and Celine are in mutual unrequited love with each other, set to marry in a year's time.
The best man, Archie, is meant to want to move up the corporate ladder and on from his love for Luke; yet he stands where he is, admiring the view.
The bridesmaid, Phoebe, Celine's sister, has no long-term aspirations beyond smoking her millionth cigarette and getting to the bottom of Luke's frequent unexplained disappearances.
The guest, Vivian, who with the benefit of some emotional distance, methodically observes her friends like ants.
As the wedding approaches and these five lives intersect, each character will find themselves looking for a path to their happily ever after - but does it lie at the end of an aisle?
