Laying the Ghost
By Simon Williams
Margot Buchanan is trying to forget it is her seventieth birthday but all around are intent on celebrating it, even Freda, her psychic friend who talks to ghosts and is deep in her jigsaw puzzle of The Full Monty. Margot and her ex-husband, Sir Leo Buchanan, were famous in the fifties for their portrayal of Romeo and Juliet and for this reason Margot is visited by young Sadie Croft who is also to play Juliet. They are interrupted by the arrival of Lady Judy Buchanan, Leo's current wife, then Leo himself arrives and the chaos begins.
