Rookery Nook by Ben Travers
Gerald rents Rookery Nook where his wife, Clara, will join him later. He is agreeably surprised by a pretty stranger called Rhoda who comes running to him for protection against her irascible German stepfather. Gerald allows her to stay in one of the bedrooms but as she is clad only in pyjamas, it is vital to conceal her presence from nosy neighbours. Rhoda gets herself some clothes just in time before Clara arrives but Gerald has some difficulty in convincing Clara of his innocence.-6 women, 5 men-

Ben Travers (1886-1980) was a British playwright best remembered for his long-running series of farces, which were first produced in the 1920s and 1930s. He is regarded as the master of the Aldwych Farces. He had 21 plays produced. Many of these were made into films and later television productions. He also wrote novels and other works during a career spanning almost 60 years. Introduced by Andrew Morgan, the four plays in this collection are representative of Travers' work at its best and most characteristic.
