Building Blocks

Season: 9 Feb to 5 Mar 2022

Written by: Bob Larbey
By Arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical On Behalf of Samuel French A Concord Theatricals Company.

Directed by: Rob & Leah White

Jim and Mary Baxter are in the middle of one of life’s major traumas. They are building an extension on to their house.  A great deal of their time is consumed in negotiations with the builder, the charming but evasive David. By turns hilarious and touching, this well-observed comedy will bring smiles and groans of recognition to all those who have ever been involved in this situation -- and a few rueful warnings to those who have not!

Naturally, everything goes to plan, - but does it?

Bob Larbey wrote the television comedies A Fine Romance and As Time Goes By and co-wrote ‘The Good Life’ amongst others. Building Blocks was written from the heart about family traumas during a domestic building extension.

A group of the typical British murder-mystery types gather for a weekend retreat at a sumptuous country estate. Suddenly one of them dies.

'We’re always at one of these little gatherings, aren’t we? Someone is always murdered in some foul and nefarious way. Every time. Without fail. It completely ruins the party'

As the laughs and the bodies pile up, is this another formulaic Agatha Christie type murder mystery? Or is it something diabolically different?
