Synopsis of the play:
Agatha Sillie and her eight children are what her neighbours think of as the "Family form Hell" until they find out things could be much worse. The Sillies have been tenants in Shoe Cottage for many years, but now a man from the council comes round to evict the Sillies. He is closely followed by owner Rachel Shrew and her son Arnold. The neighbours euphoria at getting rid of the family are short lived when they discover the reason for the eviction and what they will have to put up with instead.
Arnold is smitten by Agatha's oldest daughter Millicent, but could she possible by interested in a nerd like him?
The Shrews and the Sillies seem to be at daggers drawn, but then Willie Sillie hears something that changes everything.
