"The dresses are chosen, the venue’s been booked and the RSVPs are flooding in. But Tara’s perfect Nigerian wedding to her girlfriend Leah is suddenly derailed when her parents refuse to attend.
High above London, suspended between the stars, three of Tara’s ancestors are jolted from their eternal rest. Can these representatives of generations past keep the family together? And will Tara’s decision ever get their blessing?
An epic family drama played out between the heavens and earth, The High Table is the hilarious and heart-breaking debut play from Temi Wilkey."
Another of those "Where's the thread?" situations since as usual, I'm sure others have seen this, plan to or would be interested but anyway: this first play by an actor is well worth seeing and has had some great reviews. It felt very complete to me though some critics have questioned the finished version. I enjoyed the matinee yesterday (and a bargain with my £10 seat, which is the only type I ever book at the Bush, ie allocated by the Box Office on the day), would recommend this and will certainly look out for further work by the writer in future.
