Hay Fever

Last year, Judith retired from her life-on-stage. Already, she misses the applause. Idling away at their country home, the rest of the family – hermetic novelist husband David and failure-to-launch children Sorel and Simon – are too self-involved to be a good audience. So, Judith invites a young fan as her guest for the weekend. But unbeknownst to her, each of the Blisses have a guest of their own arriving at the very same time. Completely unsuited to hosting and allergic to compromise, the house quickly erupts into a chaos of parlour games, put-downs and unrequested encores.
