-Jimmy Porter: He has a terrible bad humor and treats very bad his wife, Alison.

-Cliff Lewis: He's Jimmy and Alison's friend, and lives with them. He is calm and

very kindly with Alison.

-Alison Porter: Jimmy's wife. She bears Jimmy a long time

-Helena Charles: Alison's best friend, she hates Jimmy. Helena is a feminist, and she's

respected and admired by her royalty. (Jimmy could say she's a posh).

-Colonel Redfern: Alison's father. He was once a hero in the war of colonialism in the

India, but when he returned, the world and society that he knew had changed totally.

Now, he's depressed and lives reviving better times.

Jimmy, Alison and Cliff live together in a small apartment. Jimmy don't work or study

nor Alison, but Cliff do. Their lives are a little empty, and with Jimmy and his bad

humor, is like hell. Alison, who fears Jimmy's anger, can't tell him that she's pregnant.

So, when Helena comes to her apartment and Alison told that to her friend, Helena

calls to Alison's home and say to her parents to bring back their daughter. But when

Jimmy come back (Alison's back to her home was when Jimmy was not in home) and

Helena told him that her wife run away and was pregnant, both discuss and finally

they kissed. Months later, Alison come back and Helena decides to go out, because

she need it. In the end, Alison tell Jimmy that the baby died and they both return back

together as husband and wife.

The apartment where Jimmy, Alison and Cliff (later Helena) live. The time is not

described, but we can suppose that is in actuality.

The productions costs and the put in scene are simple and easy to make.

I like the dramatism of the play and the emotional complexity of the characters.
