Noel Coward sends the audience on holiday with the eccentric and somewhat self-absorbed Bliss family. The four Bliss family members spend the weekend in their country home and unbeknownst to each other have each invited a romantic prospect. As the unsuspecting romantic prospects begin to arrive and family members each discover the increasing number of guests, the Bliss family lives up to its name as the “quiet weekend” comes to an exhausting and hilarious finale.
