Wrington Drama Club ARCHIVE Spirit of Christmas Page 2

Rosy takes the opportunity of a quiet drink with her mother to tell Phyllida just why she hates the whole idea of Christmas in her company .. and this whole setting ...

... and when they're joined by Lucinda, Hugh and Mrs Timms, a further litany of anti- Christmas feelings is rehearsed ... ... right up until dinner time ...

... when the ominous arrival of a "local government official" introduces a period of enforced isolation from the rest of the world because of the outbreak of a mystery illness ...

Later on, Enid returns to begin engaging each guest in turn in a series of revealing conversations.

Next morning at breakfast, Rosy devastatingly 'lays it on the line' for Phyllida ...

... and other guests explore their own incompatibilities ...

... with Enid again lending an attentive ear ...
