The play is set in a very elegant top floor London flat, belonging to Philip and Joanna Markham. Philip is a publisher of children’s books, and he shares an office with his partner, Henry Lodge, on the ground floor. The action of the play takes place in the Markhams’ living room and bedroom, the wall between the two having been “cut away” so that we can see both rooms. It is a warm summer evening. The Markhams are about to leave for a Publishers’ Dinner, unaware that at least three other people have designs on the empty flat…
