A trip to the seaside proves unfortunate for Darren and Debra's grandmother as she is left behind. Does this prove she is an encumbrance to the family or that the family is self-centred and selfish

Jolly Good Fun takes place in an English Country Garden in the 1920's. The cast were aged between eight and seventeen and takes a light hearted look at the upstairs/downstairs characters. The young girls' chatter revolves around Rupert the dsahing young of quite a few dreams. In the meantime our hero Harry is trying to find a way to meet his grilfriend who works as a maid at the house. Add a fortune telleing session and a Murder Mystery Evening to the pot and you can be sure of some 'Jolly Good Fun'

The play is a wryly observed comic drama on family life. School breaks up and the annual summer holiday begins. 'Where to go?' presents the first problem, followed by the interminable car journey, arrival, a sortie to the beach and a minefield of disasters which the family encounter along the way.

Basically it's a family's 'typically British' annual summer holiday, set roughly in the early 70s when every family went off on a seaside holiday (every year!) The play progresses through various short scenes depicting the car journey, the roadside picnic, getting there (eventually), the hotel, the beach, the talent contest, the holiday romance... the list goes on.

Everyone will be able to identify with something in the play.
