The Bed Before Yesterday
THE BED BEFORE YESTERDAY (1975) depicts a middle-aged woman discovering the pleasure of sex, to the consternation of some who know her and the delight of others.
This production originally played in repertoire with Chekhov’s THE SEAGULL and used the same cast (qv). It proved the more popular of the two productions and continued on its own from 29th April 1976.
