Hell & Highwater

5m 2f - Dining Room in Stately Home

It's dinner at Summerville House. No Summerville in seventeen generations has missed dinner, and
Admiral Lord Charles Summerville is damned if he'll start now, burst water pipe or no burst water pipe!
As the water level rises, the family remain stoic, apart from Lazard, who is a cad and a bounder. As panic
increases, with the family "swimming" on stage,the indomitable butler Beacham struggles to save the day.
