Long-awaited, long-overdue: The Professionals as you have never seen them before.

The Norman Conquests - De Complete Serie

Zavvi - Het huis van de popcultuurDeze meesterlijke bewerking van Alan Ayckbourn's gevierde trio toneelstukken omvat een opmerkelijk scala aan talent - van de meermaals bekroonde producenten Verity Lambert en David Susskind, tot een cast met Tom Conti, Penelope Keith, Richard Briers en Penelope Wilton.Gebruikmakend van een typisch inventieve methode (die Ayckbourn in 1999 verder zou uitdiepen met de gelijktijdige enscenering van de twee-act House and Garden), presenteert de trilogie een komisch beladen weekend vanuit drie verschillende perspectieven, als familie en schoonfamilie samenkomen in het vervallen landhuis van hun bedlegerige moeder, de drank vloeit, en verborgen vijandschappen, intieme geheimen en ongemakkelijke waarheden komen tevoorschijn door het vernisje van vrolijkheid en beleefdheid.The Norman Conquests was een fenomenaal succes zowel op het Londense West End in 1974 als op Broadway het jaar daarop, en deze Thames productie zegevierde ook bij de BAFTA Awards in 1977, waarbij Keith een prijs kreeg voor Beste Actrice en een gezamenlijke nominatie voor Beste Dramaserie voor Lambert en regisseur Herbert Wise.
