About the Show
By Stephen Bill. Directed by Muriel Kidd. A mother's 86th birthday tea is a desperate affair. She is racked with pain and feels that she has lived too long, and her daughter feels guilty at not being able to help. After the party all the old family prejudices are forced out into the open in a sometimes hilarious, painful and moving picture of a family in turmoil. The action takes place in the back living room of an inner city Victorian House. Time: the 1980s, September.
