Classic comedy of bad manners about a flamboyant family. The characters of Judith and David Bliss were based on real life friends of the playwright, American actress Laurette Taylor and her husband Hartley Manners. The eccentric couple were renowned for their table manners, surprised guests would often endure shrill arguments - waged entirely among the family - which often ended with them storming out of the room, leaving their bewildered guests to make what they could of the rest of the evening. Running time 2 hours 10 minutes.

Fantastic show. My family and I enjoyed it immensely. A big thank you to the cast, especially Christopher Naylor who very kindly went to the trouble of gathering autograghs from the rest of the cast for my son James.
