About this listen
Pray, compose yourselves and adjust your waistcoats; this week on Current Plays, Jordan and Thomas ascend the grand staircase of society with Obsession, a most refined contest of reputation, refinement, and relentless social manoeuvring in Victorian England. Estates are improved, guests are entertained, and every polite invitation carries quiet ambition beneath its lace-trimmed sleeve.
The hosts delight in the careful orchestration of servants, the art of curating just the right social circles, and the satisfying puzzle of planning the perfect evening at precisely the proper hour. Behind the formal bows and courteous smiles lies a deeply rewarding strategic experience where efficiency and elegance go hand in hand.
It is all civility, calculation, and controlled chaos where fortunes rise over tea, and one poorly timed soirée may cause quite the awkward gossip. One must, of course, keep one’s composure.
