This year’s biggest West End comedy hit is set to take the UK by storm as Bill Kenwright’s critically-acclaimed ‘savagely funny’, ‘seriously hilarious’, and ‘dazzling’ production of Alan Ayckbourn’s Absurd Person Singular goes on tour.

It’s party time at the Hopcrofts and the only present they want is to succeed in scaling the social ladder. Havoc ensues at the drinks party they hold to impress their high-powered friends - but that’s nothing compared to what happens over the next two years when the friends return their hospitality!

A classic comedy with outrageous characters - this is Ayckbourn at his best.

'Furious fun. Vintage Ayckbourn' - The Guardian
