How The Other Half Loves

About How the Other Half Loves

How the Other Half Loves is Alan Ayckbourn’s comedy about three couples, two homes and a chain of domestic misunderstanding. When Fiona Foster and Bob Phillips are each accused of having an affair by their spouses, they use the innocent Featherstones as an alibi, and the lies quickly begin to overlap.

The play cemented Alan Ayckbourn as one of Britain’s greatest modern playwrights, with a sharp take on sex, class and marital misunderstanding. This production is directed by Phillip Breen and returns the classic to the In The Round staging it was written for.

Key facts: A comedy by Alan Ayckbourn, directed by Phillip Breen, staged In The Round.
