A disastrous fete is depicted in this short play from Confusions, a set of five interlinked one act plays. Each play deals riotously, but with sharply pointed undertones, with human eccentricities and the human dilemma of loneliness.

REVIEWS:

"Runs the gamut of comic technique from faintly pathetic situation comedy to outright farce... Ayckbourn has demonstrated once again that even in a trivial situation he can hold the attention with his matchless ear for conversational speech, and in untrivial situations shows himself a comic writer of immortal quality."
