Overview

The eve-of-performance dress rehearsal of a costume show is in progress and things are running anything but smoothly for the local drama group. The whole cast is panicking as Britannia cannot climb on to her rostrum, Queen Victoria is far too tall for her part and Henry VIII wants to swap costumes with William Shakespeare because his is many sizes too big for him. To make things worse the authoress keeps storming on and off the stage putting everybody in a flurry. However, when all seems lost, Mrs Grandway, the producer, pulls the show together and with a tinge of professionalism in her voice reassures the troupe that tomorrow everything will go all right.
