Love's a Luxury

By Guy Paxton & Edward V Hoile


A theatre man, who seeks a refuge in the country away from the women around him, makes his way to Cranberry Cottage with his leading man. They are met by a young girl who is standing in for her mother who is the housekeeper. Add a crazy camper and allow the wife and girlfriend to arrive with the son and you have the ingredients for a farce. The Camper, Mr Mole, steals the show with what he does with his shorts, misunderstanding most things. The focus of the attention, Mr Charles Pentwick, overdoes all the attributes of the theatre man.
