a farce by John Dighton February 1983
Set after World War II, this delightful farce is about what happens when a boys' school receives the news that they are to billet another school which is all female.
Events are complicated by the arrival of the parents. Each headmaster/mistress tries to conceal the fact that his/her school is now coed. Eventually, the parents learn the truth and are about to remove their children when news arrives that a third school is to be amalgamated into theirs.
They all join together to keep out these intruders.
