England's famous seducer of other men's wives lays siege to his sister-in-law in the first "battle" of Ayckbourn's celebrated trilogy The Norman Conquests. In Table Manners, the action occurs in the dining room of Mother's house, where a conventional middle-class family is attempting to have a pleasant country weekend. But they are no match for Norman, the bane of the family, who horrifies everyone by doing exactly as he likes.

A 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, and Carolyn Seymour as Ruth.

      This full-length stage play is the first part of a comic trilogy set in the English suburbs, collectively titled THE NORMAN CONQUESTS. The Norman of the title, nicely played by Martin Jarvis, is what youth now call a "player," a "dawg"--a seducer of other men's wives, who here pursues his sister-in-law (Rosalind Ayres). Though this full-cast reading, taped before a live audience, is pleasant enough, it fails to engage. Some necessary spark never ignites to make us care much about the characters. Y.R.
