Perfect Wedding (Samuel French Acting Edition)

Dramas & Plays

Full Length / Comedy / 3m, 3f. From the author of Don't Dress for Dinner... Ah Provence! The French Riviera. Where the well-to-do rent luxury villas for exorbitant sums in order to get their annual fix of sun, sea, and haute cuisine. However, imagine the crisis if one such sumptuous place was double booked. Worse - imagine it triple booked! By a French couple, an English couple, and heaven forbid, an Irish/American couple. Marriages have foundered on less. Add the ingredients of copious champagne, heightened sexual impulses, and ingrained cultural differences, and the European Union could well implode! The USA and Europe have seen many comedies by Robin Hawdon, but none to threaten international relations on this scale.

Dinner with Churchill

'A peculiarly fascinating story.' --- The Guardian's Polly Toynbee  Above ground the countryside stretches quietly, majestically beneath the changing skies. Peaceful and  untroubled, far from the wars and woes of man, nature moves through her timeless cycles.  But look closer. For in the secret world beneath the grasses lies an empire in turmoil. A revered leader had died and, as the enemy prepares its armies for war, rebellion is whispered through the undergrowth. There in the kingdom of the ants the old order crumbles and the new prepares for its explosive birth. No single insect, from magnificent war leader to defiant rebel, from wise elder statesman to upstart contender, from beloved Queen to emerging young champion, is impervious to the revolutionary changes within the hierarchy, or the gathering threat from a terrible foe.  Man may be ignorant of the cataclysmic battles unfolding beneath his vision, but he should take note. His struggles are not so very different....
