Confusions

By Alan Ayckbourn

Mother Figure
Why is Lucy still in her pyjamas?
Who keeps trying to call her?
What part does the mysterious Mr. Poddle play in all of this?

Drinking Companion
You know the story: businessman in hotel; pretty girl in hotel bar; arrival of second pretty girl; plenty of alcohol…How many people will be sleeping in room 249 tonight?

Between Mouthfuls
Two couples out for a meal. And they discover that there is more than just the choice of restaurant that connects them.

Gosforth’s Fête
So many things to sort out when running a garden party: will the band arrive on time? Will the gym display run smoothly? Is there enough tea for everyone? Maybe not the best time for Milly to share her news with Gordon, but it really is frightfully urgent…

A Talk In The Park
What better way to spend some free time than to sit in a park with like-minded people?

It Takes Two

seven short audio plays about relationships

 "We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it.“ (John Lennon)

One of the most basic human needs: the need for connection. One of the most difficult things to achieve and maintain: connection.

The Schauspielgruppe des Anglistischen Seminars is pleased to announce three dates for live performances of a number of short plays on the topic of relationships: love, marriage, infidelity, with a few cups of tea thrown in for good measure.
