Introduction
In a 2009 interview Mike Leigh said, 'Of course i recognise the enduring popularity of Abigail's Party. It still hits a nerve about the way we live. It's real even though it's apparently a heightened and comic play. It's a reflection of the realities of how we live on several different levels. It's about aspirationalism and materialism, love and relationships. Like much of my work it's about the disease I call "the done thing" - basically, keeping up with the Joneses.'.
Last performed at the South London Theatre in 1985, we hope you enjoy the show and find it relevant. You may never go to a neighbour's drinks party again.
