by Michael Frayn
With Rosemary Leach as Jess, Angela Pleasence as Liz, Clive Swift as Neil, Georgina Ward as Willa

Liz is twenty-seven today. It is Sunday in her London bachelor-girl's flat, and to celebrate or commiserate with her on this birthday her elder sister, Jess, is invited to lunch. Jess, a proud parent, is far gone with a fourth pregnancy. The baby is due in a fortnight, or so she thinks. But Liz and her bachelor guests are due for a rude shock. The author, Michael Frayn, himself a father, uses this situation to look uproariously at the social embarrassments of pregnancy, childbirth, and just being a woman.
