The Chesil Theatre, Winchester, presents:

The Constant Wife, by Somerset Maugham. Directed by Caroline Helcké

30th March - 4th April 2009 at 7.45pm.

[See the Hampshire Chronicle review of this production]

Constance, a deeply loyal wife to her blatantly unfaithful husband has her reasons for ignoring the obvious, despite her sister’s determined efforts to enlighten her.

However, the inevitable moment arrives when the affair becomes embarrassingly public. What then? Divorce him after fifteen years of marriage, or forgive him and go on as before?

But Constance has another more interesting strategy: an unconventional, indeed provocative one for the upper classes in 1930s England.

A witty, sparkling comedy of manners - with surprising twists and turns.
