A man waits at a grandly laid dinner table. Two women chatter as they dress in their finest clothes. Are they all destined to spend a pleasant evening together, or will there be a more unexpected outcome? With its ticking clocks and gothic period style, Solo Party does indeed intrigue, leading the audience down the garden path (quite literally) to a surprise ending.
