He makes an unexpected friend in one of the actors, Oliver James, who comes down from London to play Christian in Cyrano de Bergerac. Over time, their friendship turns into something more, but a burgeoning relationship is complicated by the fact Oliver has a partner in London.When the COVID pandemic hits and the theatre is forced to close, seemingly for good, Andrew moves on from his job and from his crush. Will an unexpected encounter with Oliver several years later let them pick up where they left off? Or has too much time passed for there ever to be anything between them?
