Directed by Nick Perry
A Stage Club Presentation 41 Malcolm Rd Singapore 308276
"Alarms and Excursions" sees Frayn return in sparkling comic
form as he takes a wry look at our increasingly desperate reliance on
technology. In the opening play, "Alarms" , a cosy dinner party

to total confusion and increasing desperation. And there are six more
