Abigail's Party review

This London Classic Theatre production is extremely well cast, designed, directed and presented. It is just let down a little by the piece itself, with the script feeling dated and inconsequential. It isn't quite weighty enough to be classed as a drama, and isn't funny enough to be considered a comedy As a curio of its time its fine, but otherwise there are probably better parties to go to.
