Synopsis

This production is set in the country house of Walter & Ceilia Bryce. Walter and Ceilia have endured their marriage for a number of years and hire the services of a professional suicide merchant to bring their less than happy union to an end. This doesnt sound like the stuff of a comedy but insert several mistaken identities, injured rubber plants, a Samaritan and a measure of infidelity into the mix and it is the recipe for a good chuckle.

WALTER used to love his wife, Celia, but it is hard to keep loving someone whose main aim in life is to end it all. Particularly when she wants him to end it all with her!
