Friday 29 October 1999 - Saturday 20 November 1999 excluding Sundays and Mondays
Three couples, two dinner parties and a kaleidoscope of misunderstandings from the master of situation comedy, Alan Ayckbourn.
It's breakfast time, Bob was out last night. Therasa's suspicious.
Fiona forgot her wedding anniversary last night. Frank's disappointed. Bob and Frank work together but if Bob and Fiona are playing together, mayhem and confusion are just around the corner.
Enter the Featherstones, hapless alibis as half-truths and deceits get even more hysterical.
Dazzling theatrical invention and glorious comic observations mark this as one of Ayckbourn's early triumphs.
