Description

Sylvias Wedding is yet another clear-sighted and even-handed drama written by the splendid Jimmie Chinn with all his customary wit, humanity and keenness of observation. Gordon proposes to Sylvia, after ten years of courting, and throws his family, and Sylvias, into turmoil. Joyce and Vic, Sylvias parents, are hardly the sort of people Gordons pompous father, Stanley, wants his family connected with, and Vic feels much the same in return. Sylvias best friend, Yvonne, isnt much help either - as shes all too ready to deflate Sylvias joy with her cynical, world-weary comments. Against the odds, the two warring families co-operate in the wedding preparations and all looks set for success - but fate intervenes. The spirited comedy of the early scenes gives way to bitter irony....as again family values and relationships are given a stern examination in a stylish Chinn piece.
