Building Blocks

Season: 9 Feb to 5 Mar 2022

Written by: Bob Larbey
By Arrangement with ORiGiN™ Theatrical On Behalf of Samuel French A Concord Theatricals Company.

Directed by: Rob & Leah White

Jim and Mary Baxter are in the middle of one of life’s major traumas. They are building an extension on to their house.  A great deal of their time is consumed in negotiations with the builder, the charming but evasive David. By turns hilarious and touching, this well-observed comedy will bring smiles and groans of recognition to all those who have ever been involved in this situation -- and a few rueful warnings to those who have not!

Naturally, everything goes to plan, - but does it?

Bob Larbey wrote the television comedies A Fine Romance and As Time Goes By and co-wrote ‘The Good Life’ amongst others. Building Blocks was written from the heart about family traumas during a domestic building extension.

Bob Larbey nails the torture of renovating.
