Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Saving Grace: A Comedy in Three Acts
Scene - Ai a small house in a village near London. A room which originally was a dining-room, but for pres ent purposes is used not only as a dining-room, but as a general sitting-room. It is an oak-panelled room in the Jacobean style, and although it has seen better days, it is in perfectly good taste, and true to its period. On the left in the panelling, which need not be more than seven feet high, is a brown leather swing-door leading to the kitchen. At the back, between Center and Left, are double French windows leading to garden. Through these windows are seen a brick walk immediately outside, then trees, and a wall and the back cloth beyond suggests the open country.
Center is a door leading to a hall. In the left of the hall is a staircase; in the right a wall with a door sup posed to lead into a drawing-room.

Excerpt from The Saving Grace: A Comedy in Three Acts
Scene. - At a small house in a village near London. A room which originally was a dining-room, but for present purposes is used not only as a dining-room but as a general sitting-room. (For details, see accompanying plan.)
When the curtain rises, it is late on an autumn afternoon. The stage is empty for a few moments, then enter Hogg up L. He is a pleasant-looking, medium-sized man of thirty-six. He is in his shirt-sleeves, and is wearing a linen apron, and he is carrying a table-cloth and a plate-basket, which he places on a small mahogany dining-table.
Enter Parsons. She is a neat, smart, and rather determined-looking lady's maid of twenty-nine. She wears a plain black dress and lawn apron, but no cap. She helps Hogg to lay the cloth.
Hogg.
There's a hole in this cloth.
