Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When the deviously amorous Norman plans a clandestine weekend away with his sister-in-law, he has some fun and games in mind. But not quite the fun and games that he gets...Ayckbourn's trilogy has been hailed as a mould-breaking masterpiece. All three plays take place concurrently-so an exit in one becomes an entrance in another-and can be played in any order. The story of the same dreadful weekend is illuminated from three different vantage points: The dining room, the sitting room, and the garden. with a distinguished cast including Robin Herford as Norman and Tessa Peake-Jones as Sarah, the Norman Conquests is a brilliantly entertaining comedy of our time: wise and witty, funny and profound.
