Alarms and Excursions

BY MICHAEL FRAYN

Performed: March 2019

Who doesn't know the frustration of hearing a certain beeping, and not knowing where it's coming from? Sometimes it's not just one annoying alarm, but also an unstoppable buzzing and an impatient phone call at the same time. Not to mention friends who simply do not leave your house... Or your suitcase leading to gunshots in your hotel room. This collection of hilarious scenes illustrates that with or without electronic devices, human communication may fail in many ways.
