Photo CAPTION/Synopsis:
Things are going badly for struggling artist Brindsley Miller and his fiancée Carol during a party designed to impress Carol’s bombastic father, Colonel Melkett, and millionaire Georg Bamberger, who may buy some of Brindsley’s sculptures. They have borrowed (without permission) the furniture and effects of their fussy neighbor, Ellis, to make Brindsley’s more presentable. Before the guests arrive the power goes out, plunging the flat into darkness; only the audience can see what is happening. What follows is a frantic romp with unexpected visitors, mistaken identities, and surprises lurking in every dark corner! The result, as you might expect, is chaotic, disastrous – and very funny!
