Plot
M4 (20s, 30s, 60s) F4 (20s, 30s, 50s). A living-room.
'We all marry the wrong people,' announces Edward Gray and, looking at his three daughters and their unsuitable partners, it is difficult to disagree. Edward's marriage to mousy Emma isn't much better — otherwise why would the daughters suspect they are trying to kill each other? Just as the plot is thickening, there comes Ayckbourn's coup de théâtre: the younger couples change partners — and then again! — so that every possible combination is shown to the audience.
