Caroline's Kitchen: Oberon Modern Plays

Autor Torben Betts
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 iun 2018
Monogamy means sharing your life with one person, but what if you shared your kitchen with 5.6 million?Caroline Mortimer, the nation's favourite TV cook, has it all - a sparkling career, a big house in Highgate, a (golf) loving husband, smart kids and the best kitchen money can buy.But beneath the immaculate furnishings, studio lighting and away from the glare of the ever-present cameras - Caroline must face the looming collision of living a private life in the public eye. What happens when the cameras turn off and the truth comes out?Caroline's Kitchen serves up deft dialogue in absurd situations: "Betts paints a wonderfully lurid picture of the middle classes, juxtaposed with the fragility of those who serve them" (The Stage). First performed as Monogamy at Malvern Theatre starring Janie Dee, it then embarked on a national tour. It is a  searing, sharp, state of the nation comedy from one of the UK's most exciting playwrights, Torben Betts.
