Written in 1961 it evokes an era that many will remember well and although set in Yorkshire it could be anywhere in Britain as we recognise familiar characters from our youth, from formidable aunties to inebriated uncles!
The first act depicts preparation for a family wedding and the second act a family funeral wake.
