Edgar, a retired army captain, and Alice, a former actress, are awaiting their 25th wedding anniversary. Socially and physically isolated on a remote island, they spend their days despising each other until the arrival of Alice's cousin Kurt. When Kurt discovers Edgar has had influence over the outcome of his recent divorce, he forms an alliance with Alice to plot against the captain with unexpected results.
This darkly humorous classic, which paved the way for plays like Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, leaves the audience contemplating the true nature of marriage.
