In this hysterical farce by acclaimed playwright Sir Alan Ayckbourn, three couples navigate the social ladder - climbing and falling - over the course of three ridiculously catastrophic Christmas parties. Off-stage, the most obnoxious guests ever only make matters worse and a barking dog intimidates everyone. Onstage, the couples try desperately to deal with their own relationships, as well as their "friends," in very different - and hilarious ways.
