About the show

London, 1969. Albie, an anxious out-of-work actor, is caught between the suffocating affections of an older playwright and the chaotic influence of his roommate, Turner. When a chance encounter at the cinema leads him to Peggy Day, Albie seizes the opportunity to reinvent himself. But as one night spirals into a farcical web of lies, and with Albie disastrously out of his depth, Turner begins to suspect Peggy may not be what she seems. A dark, off-beat comedy backdropped by 1960s Soho, Peggy Day explores desire, delusion and the dangers of being double-booked.
