'I'm exceptional!' Shaun Evans and Nancy Carroll in Manor by Moira Buffini

Diana (Nancy Carroll) and Ted (Shaun Evans) get talking and flirting as they're thrown together to survive a violent storm in Diana's manor house. This scene was shot during rehearsals for our darkly comic new play: https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/sh... As a violent storm sweeps the coast, Diana (Nancy Carroll) struggles to keep the roof on her run-down manor house. When a group of strangers arrive in search of shelter, she meets Ted (Shaun Evans), the charismatic leader of a far-right organisation. Could he be Diana’s saviour, or pull the fragile household to pieces?
