Three playlets from Jean McConnell’s Deckchairs II and Deckchairs III plays - each for two actresses. The playlets are alternatively funny and poignant and each has a distinct ‘twist in the tail’. The format is the same as the very successful sell-out production of Bob Larby’s ‘A Small Affair’ in June 2008 where the play is presented as Supper Theatre on the Saturday evening with a fish and chip or chicken and chip supper (BYO wine) and on the Sunday an afternoon performance with a delicious cream tea!
