But Once A Year

5th – 9th December 2023

A Christmas comedy drama to get you in the festive spirit

Mrs Meldon is entertaining her usual party for the Christmas week – the pleasure is not, however, unalloyed. With the difficult Aunt Topsey and easily offended Uncle Ned among the invited guests, the Yuletide celebrations are likely to be anything but festive. Throw in an unexpected visitor and a love triangle involving Mrs Meldon’s two daughters and Tony Martley, a young artist, and the stage is set for a Christmas comedy full of drama.
