Local Affairs A comedy by Richard Harris
Charles is having difficulty finding a suitable outfit for a fancy dress party, with little encouragement from Norma, whose mind is more on her new garden and fitted kitchen. His troubles, however, pall before those occurring in other households on the "superior" Housing development. David's wife Hillary arrives home early from a week on a health farm to find her interfering mother-in-law very much in residence, while at number eleven Susan and Keith are unable to enjoy a weekend without their kids, as Susan spends all her time worrying and Keith all his working on his precious motorbike. Further complications ensue. The play ingeniously uses the same set to represent all three houses.
