The Thespian Meal and a Charity Supper Feast
An undertow Thespian recounts a charity benefit where two professionals joined amateurs for a week of free lunches. Hunger spurred a stage trick to stage a lavish supper, but the pair gorged while the cast and audience watched, creating a comic disaster and a three day meal tale. The narrative blends theatrical bravado with memories of splurged dinners and odd anecdotes from Sandringham to Marlborough House.
