A tragi-comedy by John Galsworthy.
[Starring] Edward Chapman, John Robinson and Billie Whitelaw.

The action takes place in the summer of 1920 on and around an English country estate.

Tonight's play, one of the most powerful to come from Galsworthy's pen, is concerned with the clash between the respectable well-bred Hillcrists who live in the beautiful house that has been the family home since the days of Elizabeth I, and the Hornblowers - rich newcomers from the North who have their own ideas about developing the countryside and establishing their potteries regardless of the ugliness that will follow.
The battle between these two families - waged with all the passion and vigour of two sides who sincerely believe their respective causes to be right - is drawn with great dramatic skill, and as in other Galsworthy plays, presents with disarming fairness, both sides of the question.
