I mean like, if the 18th century is your thing thats cool. This is not a much fun as _The Rivals_ but honestly its slim pickin's post Restoration in terms of English Drama so whatevs.
A short play about courting. Tony Lumpkin doesn't want to marry his cousin, Miss Neville, even though his mother highly encourages the act. His sister (step-sister really) is about to meet the husband picked out for her by her father. Neither lady is very excited about the match. Apparently Miss Hardcastle (his sister) has been told that her husband is "bashful," a thing she cannot abide. And for her part, Miss Neville has a suitor that she is much more interested in.
Both of the suitors are heading for the Hardcastle home when Tony plays a trick on them making them believe they are staying at an inn. Chaos ensues.
Fun read.
