Don't Dress for Dinner

Don’t Dress for Dinner by Marc Camoletti and Robin Hawdon

Ooh La La! This is an hilarious French farce from the early 1990s that tells the tale of Bernard who invites his chic Parisian mistress, Suzanne (Suzy for short) to spend the weekend with him at the country house that he owns with his wife Jacqueline, because Jacqueline is going to her mother’s. As an alibi Bernard also invites his best friend, Robert, and he also arranges for a cordon bleu cook to come along to provide haute cuisine for them all. However, Bernard isn’t the only one having an affair and when Jacquline decides not to visit her mother and the catering agency send their cook Suzette (Suzy for short) the stage is set for multiple mistaken identities and confusion which Bernard and Robert must navigate with all the ingenuity they can muster.
