Passion Killers

Mixing comedy with melancholy reflections on mariage, age, class, and friendship, this play becomes a study of the English away from home. Journalist Tom, despite having misgivings about leaving his wife Gail, has joined his freind Andy on a golfing holiday in Spain. Andy, who is married to Gail's freind Lynne, enthusiatically joins the lager-lout brigade at their hotel and makes the most of the opportunities for illicit sex that are available. Tom, holding himself apart from the crowd, embarks on a platonic freindship with Trish. Back in England, Andy keeps his infidelity secret but Tom tells Gail of his innocent friendship with Trish and the seeds of suspicion are instantly sown.
