Synopsis

A play based on a short story by Daphne du Maurier

Based on a short story by Daphne du Maurier.

Spending a holiday with her family in a luxury hotel during a heat-wave, Marie finds life with her conservative, passionless husband suffocatingly repressive.

He is unexpectedly called away on business and, inspired by hints dropped by her easy-going friend Elise, Marie starts an affair with a handsome young photographer, undeterred by the fact that he has a club-foot.

The brief infatuation brings tragedy and horror, leading to the photographer's death, a threat of blackmail by his sister, also club-footed, and finally an even more fearful dread, following an innocent remark by Marie's husband, that such deformities are sometimes inherited, latent in an unborn child.|4 women, 3 men, 2 girls
