Otherwise Engaged synopsis.
Witty, urbane, sophisticated and selfish, Simon Hench is a man of taste and discretion, who is accustomed to keeping himself at a graceful distance from the messy distractions of his family and friends. He has a problem, though well, several actually. As he settles down for an indulgent Saturday morning, his comfortable home is invaded by a series of unwelcome visitors. A man whose life finally catches up with him in Simon Gray's wickedly sharp, award-winning comedy.
info adapted from the 2005 production of Otherwise Engaged.
