A riotous exposure of entrepreneurial greed by Olivier Award-winning
playwright Alan Ayckbourn (Bedroom Farce, A Chorus of Disapproval). A
Small Family Business returns to the National Theatre for the first time
since its celebrated premiere in 1987, when it won the Evening Standard
Award for Best Play.
Jack McCracken: a man of principle in a
corrupt world. But not for long. Moments after taking over his
father-in-law’s business he’s approached by a private detective armed
with some compromising information. Jack’s integrity fades away as he
discovers his extended family to be thieves and adulterers, looting the
business from their suburban homes. Rampant self-interest takes over and
comic hysteria builds to a macabre climax
