DEAR OCTOPUS

A Comedy by Dodie Smith

From far and wide, four generations of the family gather to celebrate Charles and Dora Randolph’s golden wedding anniversary, and some have not met for a very long time.

All join that evening in toasting "The Family" – that dear octopus, from whose tentacles we never quite escape…. .
