A Noel Coward double bill.
Fumed Oak
Adapted by Malcolm McKee.
A snivelling daughter, a slovenly nagging wife and a hideous mother-in-law dominate Henry Gow's life. In 1930s South London, domestic revolt is about to take place.
Family Album
Autumn 1860, and the Featherways family gather to hear the will of their deceased father. As the Madeira flows, the memories become less rosy, and Burrows is summoned to open the mysterious trunk from the attic.
