Absurd comedy
ALAN Ayckbourn's sharp, comic play Absurd Person Singular opens at Birmingham Repertory Theatre tomorrow (Friday). The play is centred on a trio of Christmas parties in social climbing 70s suburbia. Taking turns to host the annual gathering, three couples get more festivity than they bargained for, as drink begins to flow. The play runs until December 23 but there are no performances between December 3 and 12. Tickets: 0121 236 4455.
