Separate Tables
Two one-act plays by Terence Rattigan, presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd
Performances 14-17 May 2025, Betchworth Village Hall (Saturday matinee)
Director: Diane Mayall
Bournemouth 1954, The Beauregard Hotel is a genteel respectable establishment proudly run by the steady and kind Miss Cooper. In addtion to the casual guests, it is also the permanent home to an eclectic mix of retired 'regulars' who elect to live at the hotel and occasionally share one another's company albeit at 'Separate Tables'. But this quiet idyll is shaken when not everything and not everyone is quite what they seem.
Two plays brilliantly linked as one, Separate Tables is a wonderfully written, beautiful study in human nature. Heartfelt, poignant, intense, funny and touching.
