Fringe Benefits

Fringe Benefits is a comedy for three men and four women. Isobel and Colin, Jim and Brenda, are arranging to go on their joint holiday to Torremolinos. However, both the men and the women have decided (separately) they would rather not to go: the women because they are sick of it, the men because, according to JIm, two very attractive office girls would appreciate the pleasure of their company-in East Croydon. Both the women and the men suggest that plans are changed, but neither sex divulges the real reason. Complications inevitably ensue-particularly after the arrival not only only to Fiona and Doreen (the two office girls) but also of young Richard who, having a preference for (as he not very tactfully puts it) "older women", comes in search of Brenda-and then turns to Isobel as being "older still".
