The Footlight Club presents Olivier, Tony and Moliere Award-winning playwright Alan Ayckbourn's 1972 play Absurd Person Singular. Three couples host Christmas Eve gatherings in their respective homes over three successive years. On the first holiday eve, "lower class" but very much up-and-coming Hopcrofts are in their bright new gadget-filled kitchen, anxiously hosting a small party for their bank manager and his wife and an architect neighbor. The following Christmas Eve finds the architect and his wife hosting a party in their now-neglected, untidy flat. The final Christmas Eve finds the the bank manager and his wife playing host in their large but clearly dated Victorian-style kitchen. The dark thread running through this wild comedy of behind-the-scenes party disasters is the changing fortunes of three married couples. Learn More

Description
By Michael Stewart
Music & Lyrics by Jerry Herman
Based on The Matchmaker by Thornton Wilder
Directed by Richard Repetta
This musical adaption of Thornton Wilder’s The Matchmaker has won multiple Tony awards and is widely regarded as one of Broadway's most enduring hits. Crafty, meddling Dolly Gallagher Levi is charged with finding a suitable wife for the upright, respectable Horace Vandergelder. But she quickly decides to take matters into her own hands and keep him for herself, and Dolly sets out to scheme and sing her way into Horace’s hard heart all over New York.
