Terence Rattigan Price: $14.95

Separate Tables return back

These two plays are set in a shabby genteel hotel on England’s south coast. Except for the two leads in each (which may be doubled) the same characters appear in both. In Table by the Window, a down at the heels journalist is confronted by his ex wife, a former model who provoked him to a violent act that sent him to prison and ruined him

Still loving each other, they nevertheless go through another terrible scene and it is the hotel manager, Miss Cooper, who finds a way to repair their broken lives. In Table Number Seven, a bogus army officer without the background and education he claims and a neurotic girl with a ruthless domineering mother are attracted to each other

A sordid scandal threatens to drive them apart, but when all seems lost Miss Cooper comes to the rescue

“A triumph” ~ N.Y. Post

“To his skill as a craftsman, Mr. Rattigan has added understanding and forgiveness. The finest thing he’s written” ~ N.Y. Times
