Ten Times Table by Alan Ayckbourn

The leading lights of the village have decided to hold a pageant of local history based on a somewhat vague event, The Massacre of the Pendon Twelve. But there's a young left wing teacher on the committee who decides to turn it into a rally for proletarian revolution. Committee meetings become symbolic battlefields for conflicting views - the right wing faction being led by the Chairman's conservative wife. The event turns into a violent confrontation between the two extremes, with cataclysmic results. Police intervention brings matters to a relatively quiet conclusion, but already another pageant - Romans versus Britons - seems an attractive possibility.

With almost sixty plays under his belt, Alan Ayckbourn is one of England's most prolific and widely produced living writers. He was knighted in 1997 for his contributions to the theater. This year, he was represented in New York by simultaneous productions of his plays House and Garden on both stages of the Manhattan Theater Club. He resides in the United Kingdom.
