Why we like it
"Alan Ayckbourn's 'Gameplan' cleverly navigates the intricacies of human relationships with wit and insight, revealing the games we play in life and love."
From: Adult Content Plays for Mature AudiencesWhat readers are saying
Readers find the play surprisingly engaging and farcical, diverging from expectations of a dark comedy about the sex trade. It emphasizes relationships more than the gritty realities often associated with the topic, leaving a positive impression overall.
Unique approach to serious themesStrong focus on relationshipsDifferent tone than expected
Synopsis
Teenage Sorrel fights to keep herself and her abandoned mother, once a dot.com businesswoman, financially afloat by setting up as a part-time hooker, advertising for clients on the Internet and persuading her tearful school chum to act as her maid.
Just when you wonder what will happen in this terrible situation the play becomes a farce about body disposal, police questioning and media intrusion.
