About

Gerald recently lost his wife of many years. Amy was the light of his life, almost heaven-sent. 

It’s tricky thinking about life without her but he’s trying his best to put a brave face on things, accepting help from fussy neighbours and muddling along as best he can.

Then a mysterious stranger turns up at Amy’s wake. He seems like a nice enough chap, washing the dishes and offering to do a shop for Gerald, but is he all that he appears?  

Alan Ayckbourn’s 91st play digs deep into one of life’s greatest mysteries – what makes someone a good person? And in this day and age, can you ever really be sure...?

“He is a kind of English Chekhov who is also an incomparably fine director of his own serious comedies”
The Wall Street Journal on The Girl Next Door (2021)

“Ayckbourn’s deft and light touch takes you deviously into darker reaches of the soul”
Scarborough News on Family Album (2022)

“Genius...highly amusing”
The Daily Mail on Constant Companions (2023)

"Very funny... a beautifully performed drama"
The Observer on Show & Tell (2024)
