Synopsis

This brilliant comic trilogy details the amorous exploits of Norman, assistant librarian, whose one aim is to make the women of his life happyâ these women being, as it happens, three sisters, one of them his wife, who canâ t wear contact lenses because â life with Norman is full of unexpected eye movements.â Each play stands uproariously on its own yet interlocks with the others to form an ingenious Chinese puzzle of successive relations.

From the Inside Flap

The third battle of Ayckbourn's celebrated trilogy The Norman Conquests returns us to the same weekend in the country, but this time to the setting of Mother's overgrown English country garden. Something more troublesome than brambles is lurking among the roses. Havoc ensues among the flora and fauna, as this cynical masterpiece makes its way to a hilarious conclusion. An L.A. Theatre Works full cast performance featuring: Rosalind Ayres as Sarah Kenneth Danziger as Reg Martin Jarvis as Norman Jane Leeves as Annie Christopher Neame as Tom Carolyn Seymour as Ruth Original music arranged by Raymond Guarna. Directed by Dennis Erdman. Recorded before a live audience at the DoubleTree Suites, Santa Monica in April of 1997.

From AudioFile

It could very well be that L.A. Theatre Works can do no wrong. Their audio productions continue to delight audiences with their professional aplomb. LIVING TOGETHER is certainly no exception. This second installment of THE NORMAN CONQUESTS trilogy treats listeners to Alan Ayckbourn's uniquely engaging characters and wry wit. This feat, combined with the British cast's rapid-fire delivery, makes this piece a comedic roller-coaster ride. As usual, LATW supports its fine performances with stellar sound quality and stage-business sound effects that blend effortlessly into the production. If you couldn't see this production live, hearing the recording is a close second! R.A.P. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
