As you might expect with a play called Bedroom Farce there was a lot of running in and out of doors, jumping into beds and the wearing of nightwear – although they were sensible pyjamas rather than scanty nighties. However, the play is written by Alan Ayckbourn so, as you watch and laugh, you have to remember the other meaning of “farce” when it comes to observing some relationships- they can seem farcical. 

 

This was a play about three very different bedrooms, all of which are on stage at the same time. The bedrooms of three couples accurately reflected their personalities – Ernest and Delia (traditional), Jan and Nick (trendy) and Kate and Malcom (chaotic).
