ABOUT Just a Little Dinner
Parisians behaving badly: one night in the Sixth gets the Elizabeth Day treatment...
In tired, hot Paris at the end of August, a group of friends, who’d rather still be at the sea, meet for a dinner in one couple’s apartment.
Taking us behind the shutters of the Sixth Arrondissement, with a cast of characters that both delight and repel, fractured relationships, manipulation, bad behaviour and desperation are all laid bare in this very contemporary take on a Parisian huis clos story.
What starts as just a little dinner ends up having monumental consequences for everyone...
