Hide AdWhen Leonard finally sends a manuscript based on his experience as a single parent and uses the female pseudonym Myrtle Banbury, Harriet is impressed.
She insists on meeting Myrtle so she can hand over the prize money and get Myrtle’s signature on a contract.
There then follow some hilarious encounters involving Leonard dressed as a woman and his family lending support.
The play is on from next Thursday to Saturday (5th-7th March) at 7.30pm each night.
