Description:

It Runs in the Family is a popular farce by British playwright Ray Cooney, set in a London hospital's doctor's common room, where Dr. David Mortimore tries to deliver a career-defining lecture while dealing with a surprise visit from an old flame, their teenage son, a police sergeant, his wife, and a stern matron, leading to a chaotic mix-up of mistaken identities and farcical situations. The play is known for its fast-paced, door-slamming comedy, cross-dressing, and general mayhem as the characters try to cover up the paternity claim.
