The play was produced on November 28 and 29, 1955 by W W Mackie.  It was directed by Rene Levenspiel.

"An ordinary, even humdrum, suburban family discovers that life is far from dull, when the head of the household reveals that he is not the honest businessman he appears to be.  J B Priestly's light-hearted story of the man who unofficially assisted the work of the Royal Mint has entertained in many countries".
