Lady Clementine has until her 27th birthday to find The One. When her latest beau goes missing, Clementine embarks on a hilariously unhinged quest to solve the mystery of her ill fortune. But with neither sense nor sensibility, will our romantic heroine find love in time? Set roughly “in the past”, this is a story about sickly sisters, self-love and Sylvanian Families.
Bonnets at the ready, ladies, for the debut character comedy show of the (Scorpio) season.
