8pm, May 10-14
Considered to be Ray Cooney’s finest and most inventive farce. A Tory junior minister in Mrs Thatcher’s government plans an extramarital tryst in the Westminster hotel where he is staying … however, an unpredictable wife, a suspicious hotel manager and a vice-hunting Labour MP prowling the hotel’s corridors like a bloodhound leads to a riotous and frenetic mix of panic, confusion and awkward hilarity.
