Follow Norman, his in-laws and the local vet over one summer weekend in a Sussex country house.
Assistant librarian Norman is intent on making all the women in his life happy simultaneously attempting to seduce his sister-in-law Annie, charm his brother’s wife Sarah and still keep his own wife, Ruth, happy. Oblivious to the repercussions of his actions, Norman leaves a trail of havoc, misunderstandings and comedy consequences.
At times wildly comic, and at times poignant Round And Round The Garden brilliantly portrays the complicated relationships amongst these six intertwined characters. Whatever happened to a peaceful weekend in the country?
This award-winning play expertly highlights Ayckbourn’s sharp, acerbic wit to reveal the secrets, lies and deception which simmer beneath the surface of family relationships.
Starring Natasha Gray (Emmerdale) Kevin Pallister (Emmerdale) and Louise Faulkner
