Comedy by Alan Ayckbourn
Christmas is the festival of love – and family. You endure the eccentric old uncle, look forward to a few peaceful hours with your loved ones, and praise your sister's menu even if it’s a complete disaster. You patiently sit through the boring puppet show your brother-in-law performs year after year, and casually brush aside your own marital problems – as long as it’s a harmonious holiday!
That is the situation at the home of Belinda and Neville, who, as they do every year, have invited family and friends for this year's Christmas celebration. But Neville's sister Phyllis has a little too much to drink while cooking, the gun enthusiast Uncle Harvey has no intention of being peaceful, the puppet show turns into a disaster, and Belinda's sister Rachel has invited a surprise guest without asking. Whatever can go wrong, does go wrong – and it is precisely because of this that it's so funny, as the characters on stage are so close to real life. And the family entanglements so familiar. And only slightly exaggerated by the author.
With Season's Greetings, Alan Ayckbourn has written a comedy classic that hasn't aged a bit, because it shows characters and scenes whose humor arises from completely everyday situations and irritations. Sitting comfortably in your theater seat, you can laugh at many a family abyss here. Until, in the end, even the Christmas tree begins to wobble.
This is a continuous multi-day event
