Confusions

A matchless quintet of interlinked plays by Britain’s best-loved comic playwright, illustrates the hilarious consequences of not listening to one another. Ayckbourn’s overlapping characters are alternately naturalistic and farcical – quirky, neurotic, self-important, and hysterical. Whether the comedy concerns marital conflict, infidelity, motherhood, or manhood; is set on a park bench or at a village fete, the characters reveal a LOL timeless familiarity in their desperation to make contact with one another.
