Somerset Maugham’s classic play is reimagined for the late 1960s, when women’s liberation was rising, social norms were shifting, and opportunity was fresh. This adaptation drops Maugham’s sharp social comedy into the vibrant, fast-changing world of the late 1960s—a moment when women were questioning marriage, autonomy, and identity with new fire. At the center of the story stands Constance Middleton, the seemingly unshakeable wife of a charming but unfaithful Boston surgeon. Her decisions are bold and surprising to herself and everyone who knows her. Through it all, Constance emerges as a heroine who discovers her power in a world buzzing with change. What follows is a series of decisions that are daring, witty, and utterly unexpected, leaving her family and friends scrambling to keep up. This is a vibrant, stylish, and deeply human tale about reinvention—set against the electric hum of a decade that changed everything.
