Overview
Lady Gilpin (Piggie) is so busy with social duties and gossip that she has no time for coherent thinking. She is set aflutter when her drawing room is suddenly filled with her husband's naval conferees, blueprint delivery boys and dumpy Mr. and Mrs. Wadhurst from the Far East, who flighty Piggie mistakes for the Rawlingsons. The Wadhursts overhear intimate phone conversations, are stumbled over, spilled upon and completely ignored before Piggie finally gets it straight.
This title is part of Tonight at 8.30, a cycle of ten one-act plays by Coward consisting of: We Were Dancing, The Astonished Heart, Red Peppers, Fumed Oak, Shadow Play, Ways and Means, Still Life, Family Album and Star Chamber.
