Description
A comedy of devious plot and counter-plot, this play is adapted from a radio broadcast on Radio 4.

As the story unfolds, a hitman and his assistant arrive to carry out their task, but the situation takes an unexpected turn. The play ends as it begins, with the original bickering couple still at odds, but with a twist that leaves the audience in stitches. With its witty dialogue and unexpected twists, this comedy of manners is sure to entertain fans of clever plotting and satire.
