- Notes: PLAY READINGSet Menu – New writing by Deborah HeathReading 28th February 2008Doors open at 6.30pm Reading starts at 7pm Set Menu, as its name suggests is set in a restaurant and explores the events of one evening. The play has 9 characters but can in fact be performed by 7 actors, which would involve two sets of doubling.Both the first and second act actually cover the same period of time in real terms but the first half explores what happens outside the restaurant, while the second reveals the interior events. The first half focuses on the growing relationship between Caroline, who is waiting for her boyfriend but has in fact been stood up, and Lewis, who is apparently the doorman but turns out to be an Oxford graduate who is a friend of Simon, the waiter. Interspersed with their conversation we meet Callum and Georgina
