About this ebook
premiered thirty years ago at the Globe Theatre, London. Returning to
the West End in a sparkling new production, it remains a classic
comedy.
Twenty years after graduation, six former students return to
their university college for a reunion dinner. Whilst their lives may
have had varying degrees of success, all are connected by a common
past. Once locked in college for the night, the graduates begin to
relive their youth, and old friendships, feuds - and the much-desired
but absurdly proper Master's wife - come tumbling back into the present
. . .
