Sir Alan Ayckbourn is a prolific British playwright whose The Norman Conquests was given a distinguished production by Cygnet Theatre last late summer/early fall. Mr. Ayckbourn's 74th play, Life of Riley, now receiving its U.S. premiere at the Old Globe's White Theatre, presents parallels to Norman but is a work inferior in most every aspect.
