Written by Alan Bennett
Directed by Martin Gilby, with assistance from Melinda Hunt
Hilary and Bron await the arrival of Hilary’s sister and brother-in-law in a very English setting. Bron potters about the garden and Hilary sits asleep on the veranda, Elgar’s music drifts from the house. The visitors arrive, bringing an assortment of particularly English things, and as the conversation proceeds, it becomes apparent they are not in England. In fact Hilary fled into exile some years previously after betraying his country, but now it seems he must return.
