13 Feb 2003 – 12 Feb 2003

All eight scenes take place on Christmas Day in the dining room of the Bishop home in a small country town in New Zealand. The first scene in 1949 and progressively until the last in 1989. As the day progresses, so to do the years. The effect is to provide the unity of a single days activity with the sweep of the forty year history of the Bishop family.
