In this witty and charming play, Hubert Henry Davies tells the story of Kate Derwent, a young woman who inherits a fortune but must marry her cousin in order to keep it. As Kate navigates the complex social mores of early 20th century England, she must also contend with the affections of two suitors, a scheming aunt, and a host of other colorful characters. With its clever dialogue and delightful humor, Cousin Kate is a must-read for fans of classic English theater.
