JOE Orton's Entertaining Mr Sloane is performed by The London Classic Theatre Company at The Point, Eastleigh next week.
The story centres around Kath and her elderly father Kemp who live in a house in the middle of a rubbish dump and are haunted by the ghosts of their past.
Their bleak existence is interrupted by the arrival of a new lodger, the mysterious Mr Sloane. Provocative and sexually ambiguous, Sloane soon has both Kath and her brother Ed competing for his favours.
But all is not as it seems. Behind Sloane's nonchalant exterior lies a calculating psychopath with a dark and secretive past.
First performed at the Arts Theatre in London in 1964, Entertaining Mr Sloane won Orton the London Critics Variety Award for Best Play of the Year.
You can see the show on Thursday, October 23, at 7.45pm. Tickets cost from £6. Box office: 023 8065 2333.
