Potters Bar Theatre Company

Arthur Wing Pinero's play deals with class, change and the enduring power of theatre. A mixture of broad comedy, touching sentiment and the occasional Victorian parlour song. It tells the story of Rose Trelawny who is the brightest star in the firmament of the Wells, the theatre company that raised her from birth. She is prepared to give it all up for the love of her stage door suitor, aristocratic Arthur. A funny and touching evening which, amongst much else, hauntingly depicts the transient nature of theatre itself.
