Trivial Pursuits
T0
A summer evening's barbecue is the setting for a meeting of the Trealaw and District Operatic Society to announce their next production. However, Nick, the Society's business manager has promised a different show and the plum roles to different people. As the evening progresses each character's foibles and talents are revealed: Joyce, once talented and well-meaning is a lush; Teddy is alternately sweet and strident; Derek is pathetic but lovable. The complex relationships between players emerges as moments of pure slapstick and farce alternating with ones full of real drama and pathos.
