London Classic Theatre is celebrating its 25th anniversary with an extensive UK tour of this early Alan Ayckbourn play. The piece premiered in the West End in 1977, following the success of The Norman Conquests and Bedroom Farce, and bears all the hallmarks of classic Ayckbourn. Directed here by Michael Cabot, LCT’s artistic director, its comedy hasn’t aged too well, as the author exposes the disintegration of a marriage and the precipitation of a mental breakdown.

At the day job today, then heading for the West End tonight. Hitting the art shops first, then cocktails and dinner with Sean Barrett and friends before the Soho Theatre and These Are The Contents Of My Head - my pick of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2024. Can’t wait!
This was such an engrossing performance. I thoroughly recommend taking a trip out to the beautiful @WatermillTh to catch it.
