How to book Absent Friends

Welcome to a tea party you'll never forget, as Alan Ayckbourn’s classic comedy of manners and social embarrassment serves up a slice of deliciously black humour in the West End this January.

When Colin loses his fiancée, his married friends invite him round for comfort over tea and sandwiches. As the tea starts to pour, it’s clear that trouble is brewing with a wickedly funny blend of jealousy, infidelity and barely concealed loathing.

Tension starts to boil and maybe Colin isn’t the one who needs help... with friends like these, who needs enemies?

Absent Friends premiered in 1974 at the Stephen Joseph Theatre and received its London premier a year later at the Garrick Theatre.
