Ayckbourn Ensemble

Alan Ayckbourn directs three premieres to celebrate his 75th birthday!

Arrivals & Departures
WORLD PREMIERE! At a London rail terminus an elaborate trap is deployed to capture an elusive terrorist. The Strategic Simulated Distractional Operations Unit is ready to pounce. Civilian witness, garrulous traffic warden, Barry Hawkins and his minder, troubled young female soldier Ez Swain wait, strangers brought together at this crucial moment.

Time Of My Life
It is Laura Stratton’s birthday and, to celebrate the event, the whole family is gathered for an evening out in their favorite restaurant. The dinner turns out to be a significant moment in all their lives.

Farcicals
Chloe With Love – Teddy and Lottie’s marriage is in difficulty. Cue next door neighbors Penny and Reggie to the rescue. But who is Chloe?
The Kidderminster Affair – Will Lottie discover the awful truth about Kidderminster? Will Teddy burn the barbeque? Two frivolous short comedies of fun, infidelity, food fights, lust and loss of trousers.
