Denys Edwards Players present

Communicating Doors

By Alan Ayckbourn

Wednesday 29th November – Friday 1st December, 7.30pm

Saturday 2nd December, 2.30pm

Communicating Doors looks set to be a great night out.  The play features a set of intriguing and often hilarious characters, including a serial killer and three strong women.

This fantastical, time-travelling comedy thriller spans three time zones, each twenty years apart.  The time travel is accessed through an unlikely time-travelling portal … communicating doors in a hotel suite at the Regal.

Poopay, a London sex specialist stumbles into a murder plot that sends her travelling back in time.  She and two women who were murdered in 1998 and 1978 race back and forth in time trying to rewrite history and prevent their own violent ends!

The frantic race begins when Poopay is hired for an evening at the Regal by an old man who eschews a fling in favour of confessing his role in the demise of his wives.  Now a target, Poopay flees into the vestibule and somehow triggers the time machine.

Tickets: £12.00 (£10.00 concessions, Wednesday only), available from:
