The action takes place, on a summer's day, in a cricket pavilion.

Only 8 years after its first performance in London, the Fairlight Players scored a hit with this thoroughly modern production. The set designers coped well with the challenge of bringing the outside inside but, despite what the review might suggest, it was not necessary to torch a new BMW during each performance.

Heather Agar played the Miriam, a part originally played by Julia McKenzie, while Lynda Leigh had the unenviable task of filling the metaphorical shoes of Maureen Lipman. Rob Friedl and Martin Harris tread the Fairlight boards for the first time as Alex and Kevin.
