Relatively Speaking
by Alan Ayckbourn
 
Greg thinks that Philipp and Sheila are his girlfriend’s
parents. Sheila thinks that Greg is her husband’s employee.
Philip thinks that Greg is his wife’s lover - and Ginny knows
that she is Philip’s lover and that she must end the relationship
before her boyfriend Greg finds out about it...
The situation escalates through ever-increasing lies and
confusions until all the characters believe that they are the only
sane one, and all the others are mad.
 
Which one of us can be sure that we can trust the person we
love? The four characters in this turbulent comedy are all faced
with this painful question. Out of their jealousies and deceptions
Alan Ayckbourn has fashioned a superb comedy of hilarious
misunderstandings.
