I think I’d grown out of Alan Ayckbourn by the time I saw this one. Or perhaps I just had grown out of Ayckbourn that was aimed at a young audience.
Not really my sort of thing

Another Saturday evening at the Cottesloe with Bobbie.
The Theatricalia entry for this one can be found here.
Michael Billington explains what the play and production was about, recommending that adults should only attend if accompanied by children!

Michael Coveney in The Observer makes no excuses for the play/production, simply suggesting that invisible was risible.

I do recall Bobbie telling me about her imaginary friend, some time before this production. But as far as I know that didn’t all go horribly wrong for her. I certainly don’t remember this production generating additional revelations from Bobbie.
