Table Manners is part of 'The Norman Conquests' trilogy set in a decaying country house. This play concentrates on events in the dining room where Reg finds food rather scarce despite having it thrown at him by Sarah... Sarah is scandalised by Annie... Annie is disappointed by men in general and Tom in particular... Tom knocks down Norman... Norman's romantic proposals are ruined thanks to Ruth... Ruth loses her patience, her temper and her glasses... and everyone has trouble deciding where they should sit... The play was subsequently produced by RSC in 2002. |
