Written by Don Taylor. With Oliver Cotton, Alec McCowen, Rosemary McHale, Patrick Stewart, Zena Walker. On a cold day in January 1850, a group of travelling actors arrive out of the snow at the remote country estate of Count Horvath, in eastern Hungary. The Count is delighted to have an excuse for re-opening the old family theatre, closed since his childhood. But other members of his household wonder whether these unexpected guests should be made quite so welcome.
