Eight short playlets, to be performed together in a single evening,
examine with hilarity difficulties modern technology has added to
life. In Alarms, two couples embark on a dinner party that is
doomed to failure as, one by one, labor saving devices and even
furniture become hostile. Doubles sees two couples having similar
problems in adjacent hotel rooms. In Leavings, the dinner party is
revisited to great amusement. In Look Away Now, passengers ignore
the airline's safety lecture. Heart to Heart deals with the
impossibility of communication at a noisy cocktail party. Glasnost
presents a political speech that is sabotaged by a harassed autocue
operator. Toasters shows the problems of trying to eat and work
standing up at a social function. The last play, Immobiles, is
acted out entirely over the phone as a couple try to decide where
they should meet their German guests: Gatwick or Heathrow?
