The backwards narrative (1977 to the start of the affair in 1968) held me - I wanted to find out what would happen, despite the dramatic irony generated by the first scene's revelation of how it would end. The betrayals unfold not only on the level of actions (with the central infidelity being only the most obvious example) but also through words and communication (and their failure and lack). I suspect that perhaps the play maybe wasn't best served by this production - there were a few aspects of the performances, and perhaps directorial choices, that detracted from the power of the whole - but it was good anyway.
