Join us for this fast-paced and witty comedy that explores the complexities of marriage, infidelity, and midlife crises. We follow two seemingly ordinary couples - Mark and Vicky, and Judith and Eric - for what should be a pleasant dinner party together. However, it soon becomes clear that their relationships are far from perfect, as secrets, past affairs, and simmering tensions come to light.
As the evening progresses, misunderstandings and confrontations escalate and it isn't long before the air is thick with insults, black eyes and broken china!
This amateur production of “The Opposite Sex” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
Character Breakdown:
- Mark - A charming but somewhat smug man. Mark is confident and sharp-tongued, but beneath his bravado, he's insecure about his past relationships. He once dated Judith, and the old feelings aren't entirely dead.
- Vicky - Mark’s current partner. She's clever, witty, and has a knack for cutting sarcasm. Vicky is not as naive as she might first appear and has a few secrets of her own. She handles herself with poise, even as the evening spirals out of control.
- Eric - Judith’s partner. A bit of a nerdy or awkward type, Eric is less socially polished than Mark but has a hidden depth. He surprises everyone as the evening unfolds, revealing unexpected steel beneath his mild-mannered exterior.
- Judith - Eric’s partner and Mark’s ex. Elegant, poised, and intelligent, Judith appears calm but is simmering underneath. She's determined not to let the past dictate her present but struggles once old emotions resurface.
