The play takes place on a sunny day in a picturesque park where two mild-mannered British gentlemen meet. Soon joined by two amiable women, they discuss their worldly-wise opinions about everything under the British sun, but something not immediately apparent lies behind their jokes, card games and jovial banter.

Their often inane conversation touches upon numerous subjects ranging from the weather, the day's news, various relatives, and abandoned career paths. But even as they speak, one gets the sense that there's something not quite right. The dialogue is full of non sequiturs, fragmented speech, and Pinteresque pauses. The actors' vocal inflections, facial expressions, and body language are nearly cartoonish, inspiring laug[...]
