First staged at the Oasthouse in the late 1960s under a different name ("Nerina") and with different songs, this updated musical tells the tale of a coachload of people who are on their way to a holiday in Cornwall when they suffer a mishap and are forced to shelter in a cave which is haunted by a lady from the 17th century. As they sleep, each person that has entered the cave takes on the identity of a character in the ghost's past until her story has unfolded and she is able to find peace at last.
