A SAMUEL FRENCH, LTD. TITLE
Full-Length Play, Dramatic Comedy / 1w, 2m
John Godber
Preparing for a mystery trip to Scarborough three northern coach drivers pass the time remembering more exciting trips from the past. These three actors take turns playing an assortment of passengers, from the dotty old complainers to the retired miners seeking excitement on too little money. A touching, often hilarious, bitter-sweet play.
