Introduction

Illustrating the agelessness of avarice, Giles Cooper, in this modern play, writes of the power of greed to overcome moral scruples.

In "Everything in the Garden", we see a middle class suburban family who are so respectable that they, and their friends, could be classed as moral snobs. Like most people who live within a tight cocoon of convention, they are bigoted and intolerant of those they consider beyond the pale.

Yet.......when the chance to make a lot of money, even they will sacrifice their principles - provided they still remain outwardly moral!
