A Play by DOT ALLAN
Produced by STUART VINDEN
The living-room of a country cottage in Derbyshire on a dark night in winter. The room is lit by an oil lamp, which shows up the old-fashioned furniture, including a dresser on which stands a clock and lantern. Mrs. Brentwood is warming her hands at the fire, while Ann is standing idly looking through the window at the snowy landscape. Her mother had died many years before, a stranger in a village where strangers are not welcomed, and she had been brought up by Mrs. Brentwood. Although engaged to Jim Bryant , she craves for a glimpse of the world beyond the bleak fells before settling down.
