7– 29 March
relatively speaking
by Alan Ayckbourn

A sparkling comedy of misunderstanding
and mislaid slippers

It’s about time Greg met the in-laws. So when his girlfriend Ginny rushes off to see her parents in the country, he follows.

But what about the strange phone calls, the bath full of flowers and that incriminating slipper under the bed?

With unexpected guests around the table, they all tuck in to an eventful Sunday lunch served with a hilarious helping of hidden secrets, comic confusions and plenty of crackling!

Alan Ayckbourn is Britain’s most popular living playwright – and Relatively Speaking is where it all began – his big West End hit.
