Introduction

This was the first of the BT Biennial series, of new plays especially written for the Little Theatre Guild of Great Britain theatres. It was performed with simultaneous first nights in all particapating theatres giving it the largest ever first night audience. This meant that our play dates for the new season (starting in September) were later in the month than usual.

Happy Families is set in a house, a street, a garden and by the seaside in England. Act One takes place during 1967 to 1972 and Act Two takes place during 1975 to 1978.
