Synopsis

In this wickedly amusing play, by two master craftsmen of comedy, Harriet, a divorcee living in an elegant flat in Brighton, solves her financial problems by entertaining two married gentlemen callers on different days of the week.

The scheme faces collapse when her friend Anne, whose marriage is tottering, arrives at the flat hotly pursued by her husband, one of Harriet’s lovers is confined to Harriet’s bed with a stained ankle, and the second lover turns up unexpectedly, closely followed by two irate wives in search of itinerant husbands! The indescribable confusion that ensures builds to a rich complexity of mistaken identity, splendidly farcical situations and a climax of comedy wizardry.
