description: Life was tough in England after the Second World War - at least it was for those who were not fabulously wealthy or part of the tiny group of British film and theatre stars. Little wonder then that Elsie Lancaster, the granddaughter of a theatrical landlady, thinks only of trying to become one of that shining constellation. Oliver Plunkett shares the same ambition. For his best friend, the kooky Coco Hampton, theatre is all about costume. It is part of the inevitable flow of theatrical life that they are to become emotionally entangled with one another.
