Synopsis
by Steven Moffat
Directed by Steve Mason
This amateur production is presented by arrangement with NICK HERN BOOKS.
“We’re dying of manners. We’re under siege from personal embarrassment. And why? Because it might hurt her feelings. How did we get here?? This is not sane!”
Elsa Jean Krakowski has entered the building…
When Peter and Debbie meet the super-friendly, life-loving, Trump-supporting Elsa on a cruise, they hit if off immediately and agree to stay in contact – because that’s the polite thing to do, isn’t it? But when Elsa invites herself to stay a few months later, they decide to do some research into their uninvited guest and discover Elsa’s shocking hidden past…
Steven Moffat’s play takes a hilarious and satirical look at middle-class England’s disastrous instinct always to appear nice.
Steven Moffat is the writer of many hit TV shows, such as Sherlock, The Time Traveler’s Wife, Coupling, Douglas is Cancelled and, most famously, some of the best and most loved episodes of Dr Who. The Unfriend is his first play.
You take care of yourselves now — a person could get murdered!
