""Bedroom Farce goes back to traditional comedy a bit; it's a comedy though it's called a farce, and it's a study of the British in bed, with everything except sex?" Alan Ayckbourn
An Amateur Production By Arrangement with ORIGIN (TM) Theatrical, on behalf of Samuel French Inc. - A Concord Theatricals Company
