During the mid-1800s, Lady Mallét threw a party for her son and heir to the Primrose fortune at Tornsock Hall, in the hope of finding him a wife. The local township attended as guests of Lady Mallét; unbeknownst to Lady Mallét, Master Mallét had sent Biggs, his trustworthy messenger boy, to seek out his true love, Penny Phonetic.

Meanwhile, Murgatroyd Miller devises a plan to disgrace Penny and place his daughter, Sally, in her place to marry into the Mallét family. Smalls, Master Mallét’s trusted manservant, foils Murgatroyd Miller’s plan.

First produced in the 2008 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
