Play :: Mrs Baxter is a lady of leisure. Barnacled to the chaise longue, she happily runs others lives so she can stroll through her own. Indulged by her husband; ministered to by the put-upon family governess, hers is a life of exquisite idleness. But the arrival of her dynamic brother, fresh from the mountains of Colorado, stirs up the household and endangers her languid lifestyle. A challenge is set and a hilarious battle of wills ensues. Can anyone or anything provoke Mrs Baxter to action? Or will she find ever more ingenious ways to do absolutely nothing at all?
