Thark archiveWritten in 1927 Thark was the follow up to Travers' s smash hit Rookery Nook, set in Sir Hector Benbow's flash London apartment and also in the mysterious mansion 'Thark'. First performed as one of Travers's Aldwych farces, it is a witty and vivacious comic spectacle. Sir Hector may have an eye for the ladies but he makes a mistake when he sells the manor of Thark to the formidable Mrs Frush. She thinks it's haunted and Sir Hector's accident-prone nephew, Ronnie, vows to stay the night there to prove she is wrong. With so much experimental comedy on the scene, Thark revisits a much loved and quintessentially British comic style of performance. Ghosts, girls and the mistakes of the night abound in Hidden Pearl's goosebump gagathon.
