This play was the third in the 2006 Summer Rep Season at the Lyceum Theatre, Crewe. I had to produce four different sets in four weeks, with a day-and-a-half turn around between each show.

For this show I had the challenge of re-painting and slightly expanding on the flattage used for the first show (See Cooking With Elvis). Even if I had had the money for more flats I probably wouldn't have used them, as I am not that keen on the traditional box set; I chose instead to cut the carpet to delineate the room.
