Synopsis
Salad Days
Dorothy Reynolds & Julian Slade
Published by Samuel French Ltd
Large Mixed Cast
Having got this far, what on earth do they do next?
They could get married, of course (so they do)
But how can they make a living?
In a London park one breathlessly warm summer day they encounter a tramp who trundles round a mobile mini-piano
Even tramps need a holiday now and then, and so he invites the young graduates to look after his business interests for a month
But the piano is not just any old piano - those who hear it find themselves dancing, even against their better judgment!
On this gentle thread of story is strung a series of revue-type scenes providing rich opportunities for versatile comedy players who can also sing and dance
The original production which ran for 2,283 record-breaking performances at the Vaudeville had a cast of twelve, plus a pianist, who between them played fifty-five roles of assorted lengths
