Absurd Person Singular
by
Alan Ayckbourn
Directed by: Barbara Ritchie
14,16-21 Apr 2001
Set over three successive Christmas Eves, a lowly shopkeeper and his cowed, subservient wife gradually
grow in power and confidence until by the end they have the middle-class characters who once
patronised them literally dancing to their tune.
Its themes include alcoholism, suicidal depression and brutal business tactics that seem to
anticipate the greed-is-good Eighties.
