SUMMARY:
The owners of the holiday home - four married couples - arrive 
for their holidays. Each of the owners has the right to two weeks 
holiday, under condition that they never meet up with the other
owners.  The first married couple and their two spoilt children try 
to maintain  the illusion of being a real family. The second couple arrive
with their mentally handicapped son of 20. In the surreal flow of the
play, the first couple's children meet the retarded boy and transform
him into a normal adult. The third couple are on their honeymoon.
In the surreal flow - the handicapped young man seduces the young
bride. The fourth and oldest couple discover bills which have not been
paid. The couples break up. They conclude that they never had been
owners of the house, but that they had rented out their lives to 
the Owner, whose arrival is expected...
