Saltford Drama Club present “Relatively Speaking”

Saltford Drama Club’s next production is the hilarious comedy
”Relatively Speaking” by British playwright Alan Ayckbourn. This
was Alan Ayckbourn’s first West End hit and one which turned him
into a household name.
The story follows Greg and Ginny, a young couple who have only been
together a month but this doesn’t stop Greg from knowing she’s the
girl for him. So much so that when she tells him she is visiting her
parents, he decides this is the time to ask her father for his
daughters’ hand. Discovering a scribbled address, he follows her to
Buckinghamshire where he finds Philip and Sheila enjoying a peaceful
Sunday morning breakfast in the garden, but the only thing is –
they’re not Ginny’s parents!
This obviously leads to misunderstanding and confusion and the
situation becomes increasingly both complicated and hilarious.
Alan Ayckbourn is easily as funny as any of the classic comedy writers
and in this early piece showed how prolonged misunderstanding can
become a source of painful truth.
Relatively Speaking, directed by Corinne-anne Richards is being
performed at Saltford Hall from Thursday 16th – Saturday 18th
November 2017.
Tickets are £10 and available from Saltford Hall Booking Office (am
