The Contractor
by David Storey
Synopsis
In the first act men assemble on a lawn and put up a tent; in the second it is festooned; in the third, dismantled.
Meanwhile a wedding takes place as a bizarre collection of misfits from the wedding party and the tent contracting outfit interact in a poetic parable.
