In this charming historical novel, Edward Marston transports readers back to 17th century England and tells the story of a group of motley actors who journey to a small village to perform for the locals. Despite the threats of inclement weather and hostile villagers, the troupe manages to put on a delightful performance, complete with music, dancing, and a little bit of romance. Marston's writing is witty and entertaining, making this novel a perfect choice for anyone in need of a lighthearted escape from reality.
