Three couples, three Christmases, three unexpected acts. Absurd Person Singular is a sidesplitting comedy written by the well-known Alan Ayckbourn. This wilder-than-wild play, directed by Bryoni Botha (known for her work on Noises Off, The Sound of Music and The Little Mermaid), brings to life the quirks and catastrophes of three couples at three disastrous dinner parties.

Meet the cast:

- Luke Botha as Sidney Hopcroft: the hapless host

- Delinda Pelser as Jane Hopcroft: the overwhelmed hostess

- Andrew Goldie as Geoffrey Jackson: the uptight social climber

- Karley Lotz as Eva Jackson: the eccentric free spirit

- Simon Jones as Ronald Brewster-Right: the boisterous businessman

- Françoise Kock as Marion Brewster-Right: the snobbish socialite
