Synopsis
An amusing one act Melodrama written in rhyme.
In a poorly furnished Victorian room Martha sits beside the dying fire, with her tiny granddaughter Emily. Caring for the baby while her son Albert is away at sea, Martha is spending all the money Albert sends her on gin, for herself and baby Emily.
In her hand she holds a letter from the Landlord, Boris Crabtree telling her the Landlord will be coming to collect the rent money that is overdue.
Harriet a friend and neighbour and Fanny the lodger get involved with Martha’s plight and try to help. When the gruesome Landlord Boris Crabtree comes on the scene he ties Martha and Harriet up and threatens to have his evil way with them.
What will happen to them and little Emily? Will Fanny be able to sneak away and bring help? There is a twist at the end but is it an expected one?
This Melodrama is simple to stage with a single set and a few basic props.
