Relatively Speaking

Alan Ayckbourn’s comedy, set during the 1960s, involves a series of mistaken identities and misunderstandings. Ginny goes to the house of her older lover in order to end a relationship and to retrieve some compromising letters. Matters are complicated when her current partner also turns up and meets the wife of the lover, believing her to be Ginny’s mother. Confusion ensues. The result is a milestone of British theatre that provides continuous laughter.
