Some interesting choices were made in the set design: most notably the picture of Tom's father, which was represented by a framed blank. This was perhaps meant to underscore the fact of his absence, or to strengthen the suggestive power of his unseen presence; whatever the reason, it certainly gave one pause. Laura's glass collection did not occupy the central position one might expect, being placed on stage right and partially obscured by the sofa.

Then one day Sir Roger noticed that the design on a roll of Kleenex quilted toilet tissue bore a striking resemblance to his unique pattern. This month he and Pentaplex Ltd., which markets his design, filed suit against Kimberly-Clark Ltd. for copyright infringement. "When it comes to the population of Great Britain being invited ...to wipe their bottoms...
