Michaelmas Week 6
Michael Frayn's "gorgeous farce" about a university reunion premiered in 1977 at the Globe Theatre, London. It returned to the West End in 2006 in a sparkling new production featuring David Haig and Samantha Bond. It remains a classic comedy.
Twenty years after graduation, six former students return to their Oxbridge college for a reunion dinner. While their lives may have had varying degrees of success, all are connected by a common past. Once locked in college for the night, the graduates begin to relive their youth, and old friendships, feuds-and the much-desired but absurdly proper Master's wife-come tumbling back into the present. Don't miss the first ever Cambridge student production of this hilarious farce.
