Description
Dorothy wonders if an attic sale could be a solution to her cluttered home. She envisions a saleroom here and an exhibition there, with art displayed freely for all to enjoy. However, she knows that people can be a problem - too many of them, traipsing through one's house, making it difficult to appreciate the treasures on display. The idea of releasing her belongings onto the open market is both liberating and overwhelming. As Lady Stacpoole, art is meant to roam free, untethered by human constraints. Yet, in reality, people can be a hindrance, spoiling things with their presence. In this witty and insightful play, Alan Bennett explores the complexities of human nature and our relationship with possessions.
