Time of My Life
by
Alan Ayckbourn
Directed by Steve Williamson
16 - 24 April 1999
Gerry Stratton has organised a small family dinner with his sons
Glyn and Adam at his favourite restaurant to celebrate his wife Laura's
54th birthday. Glyn is with his long-suffering wife Stephanie, and their
marriage looks to be on firmer ground than it once was; Adam has brought
along his new girlfriend Maureen, an outrageous hairdresser, and they are
both eager to impress. The occasion suggests a happy domestic scene, but
gradually we are made aware of the family skeletons. We discover that Glyn
faithlessness knows no bounds, that the family transport business has been
hit by the recession, and that Laura has been unfaithful to her husband.
The present opens up to have Glyn's story move forward in time and Adam's
backwards, while at the centre Gerry and Laura pick apart their marriage
and recall first love.
