About
About How the Other Half Loves
How the Other Half Loves is Alan Ayckbourn’s domestic farce, returning to the In The Round staging it was written for. The production is directed by Phillip Breen.
Three couples, two homes and one chain of misunderstandings drive the story. When Fiona Foster and Bob Phillips are each accused of having an affair by their spouses, they use the innocent and unsuspecting Featherstones as an alibi, pulling them into a web of chaos and confusion.
This is the play that cemented Ayckbourn as one of Britain’s greatest modern playwrights, with sex, class and marital misunderstanding at its centre.
Key facts: Accessible performances are scheduled for Wed 9 Sep at 7:30pm (British Sign Language interpreted), Fri 11 Sep at 7:30pm (captioned), Sat 12 Sep at 2:30pm (relaxed, also audio described, captioned and BSL interpreted), and Mon 14 Sep at 7:30pm (audio described).
