Location: SLT Old Fire Station

It's the 1910s and young Matilda Welwyn and Dicky Mainwaring have fallen in love on a London Omnibus. But what they've failed to consider is that his parents are as posh as they come, and hers . . . well the boarding house they keep is full of angry lunatics and the bailiffs have just arrived to repossess it and what's that . . . Dicky's family are coming for a visit . . . now?

100 years old and the comedy still as crisp as a freshly-starched shirtfront, this was the first script ever performed at the Old Fire Station.
