Bedroom Farce

With his signature blend of breath-taking comic invention and beautifully observed characterisation, Alan Ayckbourn’s classic comedy explores the pressures of relationships at different stages in life. Love’s young dream Malcolm and Kate are throwing a housewarming party, and are sorely tested by the arrival of love’s living nightmare, Trevor and Susannah.

Over one Saturday night, this outrageously neurotic pair drag their problems around the bedrooms of three other couples, bringing disruption into the previously well-ordered lives of Delia and Ernest; doubt to the rock-solid commitment of Malcolm and Kate; and distress to the beds and bad backs of Nick and Jan.
