In this adaptation of Rosamunde Pilcher’s best- selling novel, Penelope’s three children squabble over their impending inheritance and what is best for their increasingly frail mother.
Meanwhile, her new gardener and his young companion increasingly remind her of a bitter sweet past in Cornwall and unknowingly help her make life-altering decisions regarding her father’s last work – the hugely valuable painting The Shell Seekers. This poignant, and sometimes funny, family saga switches between the 1980s and the Second World War.
Directors Pat and Dave Francis said: “This has long been one of our favourite novels and we are sure that the Plaza audiences will love the story as much as we do.”
RAODS presents The Shell Seekers at Plaza Theatre, Romsey, Tuesday, November 11, to Saturday, November 15, 7.30pm. Tickets, £10, from plazatheatre.com or from the Romsey TIC on 01794 512987.
