This production began performances on 25th June and closed on 28th September 2002.
Spanning a period of 15 years, this moving, funny and dazzlingly written piece explores the intricate interactions of two neighbouring couples. Jane and David are successful, apparently happy professionals while Sheila and Colin seem more insecure and isolated. All of their lives, however, are about to change.
This brand new production of Michael Frayn's Olivier Award-winning play BENEFACTORS reunites the creative team behind The Royal National Theatre's smash hit production of his record breaking comedy Noises Off.
BENEFACTORS charts four people's private and public journeys, set against the ever changing landscape of modern Britain.
