Publisher's Synopsis
The buffer zone between trust and suspicion proves fertile ground for this witty dissection of a special relationship. A chance meeting in a Manhattan restaurant for English couple Martin and Charlotte with affluent New Yorkers Ed and Lori carries the promise of a close friendship. But are they in fact speaking the same language? A transatlantic comedy of manners in which old Europe and the New World struggle to understand each other. Us and Them premièred at the Hampstead Theatre, London, in May 2003.
