| Surprise! Surprise! by Philippa Smith |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 4. Minimum Female roles = 5. Minimum total with doubling = 9. Minimum total without doubling = 15. No chorus. Nine on-stage characters plus six off-stage voices (which could be recorded). |
| Run Time | Around 120 minutes. [Estimated!] |

| Style | A fun comedy with a variety of strong characters, who are all developed well over the play. A good balance of verbal and physical humour, and of comedy and drama. |
| Synopsis | Jess's son has arranged a weekend getaway in a Derbyshire cottage for her seventieth birthday, with surprise guests in attendance. The problem is, neither her husband nor the son have bothered to turn up themselves, and the guests he's randomly picked from her contacts aren't the ones she'd have chosen to spend her special day with. |
