The Award winning Southwick Players stage their take on Stella Gibbons hilarious, comic parody of romantic, doom-laden historical novels.
-
Orphaned heroine, Flora Poste, descends on her only living relatives – the Starkadders, who scratch a living at Cold Comfort Farm, ruled by their tyrannical Great-Aunt Ada Doom, who once “saw something nasty in the woodshed…” and won’t ever let anyone forget it.
-
The farm is bleak, chaotic and dirty – but Flora, ‘expensively, athletically and lengthily educated’, strides into the melee, determined as always to restore order, arrange marriages and cast some light into their darkness. This she does, to great comic effect.
