ROBIN HAWDON
P L A Y W R I G H T


A Night In Provence

published by Samuel French
*

Hawdon’s latest comedy of manners, recently premiered in the UK and Germany to splendid reviews.

Ah Provence! The French Riviera. Where the well-to-do rent luxury villas for exorbitant sums in order to get their annual fix of sun, sea, and haute cuisine. However, imagine the crisis if one such sumptuous place was double booked. Worse – imagine it triple booked! By a French couple, an English couple, and heaven forbid, an Irish couple. Marriages have foundered on less. Add the ingredients of copious champagne, heightened sexual impulses, and ingrained cultural differences, and the European Union comes close to imploding!
