This hilarious play was written in 1979 by British playwright Alan Ayckbourn. It is set on three floors of "The Pines" with the stage arranged so that the stairs are flat and all three floors are on a single level. It is primarily about Elizabeth, who keeps changing her mind on whether to leave her husband Roland, who incidentally is planning on buying the reputedly haunted house and former brothel, Elizabeth is planning on leaving her husband and has called on her brother, Mark, to comfort Roland when he finds her farewell note. However Mark, a man whose monotone sends people to sleep, is preoccupied with the fact his fiancee, who jilted him at the altar, has been picked up by the police, apparently for soliciting. He leaves The Pines to pick Kitty up.
