This Way Up

Synopsis:
Melanie has had enough. Her journalist boyfriend Nick refers to trot around the globe visiting the world's hotspots rather than stay at home and help with the housework. There is only so much a girl can take! She's leaving! Unfortunately Nick arrives home unexpectedly and catches her packing. and now old friend Damien is suddenly showing dangerous signs of infatuation with her. Kris, her sister, is more interested in psychoanalysing the situation than being of any practical help. Just when things couldn't appear to get any more complicated a crisis arises next door and the foursome find themselves trapped in the house for the night. What unfolds is a very funny play about love gone wrong.
