1926, Kent. Lady Ansley''s old Gaiety Theatre group are reuniting at Wychbourne Court for the weekend.

Chef Nell Drury is sure her guests'' reaction isn''t the only thing worrying Lady Ansley. A fascinating group of actors and actresses - from the pompous Hubert Jarrett to the dashing Neville Heydock, it''s not long before simmering tensions, revived old scores, fears and, worst of all, buried memories take centre stage. What happened to Mary Ann Darling, the young Gaiety actress who disappeared thirty years ago? As the performance draws to a close, the real drama is only just beginning.
