Abigail's Party

by Mike Leigh

16th -19th May 2001

This play is a sharply wicked social satire on middle class suburbia. Formidable hostess, Beverley, entertains new neighbours. The evening's initial goodwill, cliches and fatuous small talk serve only to create a rising tension which finally snaps with a dramatic denouement.
