Hay fever

A light three-act comedy set during a weekend in the hall of an eccentric country household, in which a highly theatrical, self-absorbed family entertains a succession of unsuspecting guests. The hosts’ capricious behavior, lapses in hospitality and indulgent personal dramas produce a series of escalating misunderstandings and social embarrassments, exposing the tensions between private affectations and public manners while mining wit, irony and farce from domestic misrule.
