Shadows of the Evening and Come into the Garden, Maud form a perfect double-bill set in the same hotel suite.

Shadows of the Evening explores the intricacies of a late-life love triangle, and Come into the Garden, Maud is a fizzing comedy about the misunderstandings between Americans and Europeans abroad.
