Passion Play by Peter Nichols

Classic eighties play. Gripping emotional drama about infidelity and betrayal. ^*

Eleanor and James have been married for 25 years. Apparently, they have lived happily enough during that time, faithful to each other until James learns that one of Eleanor’s ‘girlfriends’ thinks him attractive and he is tempted. An affair begins but Eleanor discovers his betrayal through another friend, Agnes. We see into the minds and inner conflicts of James and Eleanor through their alter egos Jim and Nell.
