How the Other Half Loves at The Cannon Theatre

THE CANNON THEATRE PRESENTS
“How the Other Half Loves” by Sir Alan Ayckbourn

One of the most hilarious of Ayckbourn’s plays, about an extra-marital dalliance that leads to a cascade of confusion, will be presented by The Cannon Theatre in Littleton, MA, from October 25 to November 16. Directed by Erik P. Kraft, How the Other Half Loves simultaneously takes place in the homes of Frank and Fiona Foster and Bob and Teresa Phillips, and follows the consequences of an adulterous affair between a married man and his boss's wife. Their attempts to cover their tracks by roping in a third couple to be their alibi result in a chain of misunderstandings, conflicts, and revelations. Many of the scenes in the play overlap time as two separate homes occupy one space, with the action occurring concurrently and the inhabitants unaware of each other. Mixed messages and sheer mayhem ensue in this brilliantly funny farce.

Performances are October 25, 26, November 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 at 7:30 pm,
with two matinees on November 2 and 9 at 2:00 pm.
Tickets are available at www.thecannontheatre.org: Adults $25, Students/Seniors $20.
