The Camomile Lawn background

The Camomile Lawn

The story takes place in 1939, where four friends, Oliver, Calypso, Polly, and Walter, spend time with loved ones in Cornwall, savoring their carefree lives amidst the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War and the onset of World War II. Years later, they reunite for a somber occasion - a funeral.

The show follows the lives and loves of a family of cousins from 1939 to the present, closely adapted from the Mary Wesley novel. It begins with a funeral, where the reminiscences of those gathered reveal the stories of Richard and Helena, as well as their nieces and nephews.
