Description
Set in a run-down residential hotel, Separate Tables is a poignant exploration of loneliness and repression. Two interconnected one-acts bring to life the lives of two women, each struggling with their own personal demons.
In one act, a lonely divorcee tracks down her former husband, while in the other, a repressed young spinster offers moral support to a fake major. Through their stories, Rattigan sheds light on the complexities of human relationships and the fragility of the human psyche.
