How
The Other Half Loves How the Other Half Loves
is about three couples linked by an adulterous affair. Each of
the couples is divided by class (this is more prevalent
in the British version). What they have in common is that none of
them are happy. Fiona Foster and Bob Phillips are having an affair
without the knowledge of Bobís boss Frank Foster. Bobís
wife Teresa has no knowledge of the affair either. The play
starts with one little white lie that Fiona tells her husband to
cover up the affair. She hoodwinks her easily deluded husband -
one of the most naive persons in theater history. Fiona tells him
she has been out late at night on a mission of mercy to console
Mary Featherstone, the distraught wife of one of his
employees, dedicated company man William Featherstone
The husband believes that his employee William is a big philanderer
but is really a very mousy accountant. |
