The Constant Wife by Laura Wade, based on the comedy by W Somerset Maugham, produced by the Royal Shakespeare Company, opened this summer at the Swan Theatre in Stratford upon Avon to enormous critical acclaim.
1927. Constance is a very unhappy woman. “Nonsense” says her mother “she eats well, sleeps well, dresses well and she’s losing weight. No woman can be unhappy in those circumstances.” Constance is the perfect wife and mother, and her husband is as devoted to her as he is to his mistress, who just happens to be her best friend.
