Flowery Shirts & Strange Relations

The sequel to the NODA award-winning Miniskirts & Revelations. In Flowery Shirts & Strange Relations baby boomer Penny is once again looking through her teenage diaries, this time back to the autumn of 1968. We watch with her as the three generations at Greenfields' Guesthouse - Grandma, widowed mother Chris, art student Penny and biker brother Mick -approach the hippie era. We experience again the music, fashions and - some would say the more relaxed - morals of the time. Is young Penny courting disaster as she throws herself into student unrest and peace protests - and into the arms of her Afghan-coat-wearing idol Derek? What is disapproving Mum Chris not owning up to in her own private life? Is Grandma being haunted - or losing her marbles? All is revealed as the play reaches its hilarious conclusion - not least the real mystery at the centre of the plot: exactly who is the unsettling Mr Carr and why has he come to stay at the Greenfield Family Guesthouse? We never know what life will throw at us, nor how any of us will react when unexpected events hit home. You think you know your family? Present Day Penny shows us that you never can tell ...
