Under The Greenwood Tree

Love... Expectation... Opportunity... 

Nothing could prepare Fancy Day for the 
small village of Mellstock. Young, beautiful and educated she soon catches the eye of the honest, hard working Dick Dewy who is struck by love at first sight. But all is not simple for Fancy when she receives offers from Reverend Maybold who can show her the world and Farmer Shiner who can offer wealth and stability. Torn between love, opportunity, and her father’s expectations Fancy has a hard decision to make.


"Spirited wassailing, barn dances round the cider press and an inspired script that retains much of the wonderful Wessex dialect make this Dorset Corset production a rare gem." The Stage

"feel-good comedy of the first order - a theatrical toddy to warm the spirit through the autumn months." The Stage
