“A comedy with teeth.”
– The Guardian
Michael Palin’s much acclaimed stage play invites us to a ‘family gathering’.
World-weary Stephen Febble does his best to be difficult. When his daughter, her dreary husband Alan, their precocious child and the dog come to stay for the weekend, it’s enough to make him reach for the whisky!
