A classic story of repressed feelings and unhappy pasts
These two one act plays work well together to create a snapshot of life.
The first looks at relationship between a journalist and his wife in the Beauregard private hotel in 1955.
The second is set 18 months later when a repressed young spinster offers friendship and moral support to a man posing as a retired army Major when a truth about him is exposed.
With surprisingly modern themes and storylines, Rattigan's play explores how loneliness can lead to desperation, as relevant today as when it was written.
