Abigail's Party

Directed by Chas Burnell

 

The monstrous Beverly and her put-upon husband Laurence host a sophisticated soiree for their neighbours, complete with cheesy pineapples, Donna Summer and Demis Roussos. As the evening wears on and everyone’s glasses are constantly refilled, tensions amongst the adults reach boiling point while Abigail and her friends run riot next door.


The pretensions of lower-middle-class suburbia are exposed in this wickedly sharp, largely improvised satire, which achieved cult status as a BBC2 Play for Today in 1977, and featured an iconic performance by Alison Steadman as the gin-guzzling hostess from hell.
