Synopsis
Love stories yet to happen, in a future filled with surprises.
Who is the amorous stranger, Titus, who materialises in young Grace's bedroom?
Can she believe he is who he says he is?
For her parents, Franklin and Martha, does love everlasting still hold true if death is postponed indefinitely?
Can lawyer Lorraine, who prides herself on her infallibility, have finally discovered the ideal partner, one who is also never wrong?
Will lonely secretary Sylvia, after unhappy affairs with everyone from deep sea divers to space shuttle pilots, ever find her Mr Right?
A comedy with its head in the future and its heart in the past, Alan Ayckbourn's Surprises premiered in July 2012 at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in a co-production with Chichester Festival Theatre.
