In this very funny but tragic farce, an elderly couple amuse themselves and justify their lives’ lost potential by creating fictional stories. An Old man imagines he has a great message that will save the world, and that multitudes are coming to hear it. As these guests arrive, his wife brings in a crowd of chairs to accommodate them. The line between fantasy and hallucination is blurred as the couple’s game becomes their reality, leading to a shocking and ironic climax.
