A witty new drama based on the Restoration Comedy classic, The Relapse (banned for immorality and lewdness for over 200 years). Written in an eloquent and witty style with flowing action and wonderful character observation, Scarborough Fair is a delightful romp through the weaknesses and foibles of the upper social classes as they set about finding entertainment for themselves miles from the civilization which is London. "Sea, sex and social consequences. What more could one ask for?"

A delightful romp through the weaknesses and foibles of the upper social classes as they set about finding entertainment for themselves in Scarborough, miles from the comfort of their homes and staff back in London. Scarborough Fair picks up the story of the adventuring Tom, as he returns to England flat broke. His brother, Lord Frontbotham, (pronounced Fro'tham), is marrying the young Miss Helen, sight unseen, having heard she is worth a good few thousand a year in income. When Tom's vain, pompous, elder brother turns him down for a loan, Tom hatches a plan to marry Miss Helen and claim her inheritance for himself. Mr Lovelace, in Scarborough for the wedding, has fallen suddenly and madly in love with a beautiful young widow seen at a distance in the theatre. When Colonel Cholmondeley discovers the widow he has been pursuing is secretly meeting his good friend, Mr Lovelace, he decides to do the only decent thing: he attempts to seduce Mr Lovelace's lovely wife, Amanda. Planning a final fling before his wedding day, Lord Frontbotham also pursues the lovely Amanda, declaring, "I felt it my duty to corrupt her". Taking advantage of the complicated trysts evolving in Scarborough, Tom visits Miss Helen pretending to be his elder brother. All is going to plan until the real Lord Frontbotham turns up unexpectedly. Sea, sex, and social consequences. What more could one ask for? With wit and wry humour worthy of the great masters, Hills' works are set to go down as modern classics in their own right. If you get a chance, beg, borrow, or if all else fails even purchase a copy. Filled with enough witty quotations to dine out on for weeks. Based on the restoration comedy drama, The Relapse, which was considered too risqué to be performed for almost 300 years, Scarborough Fair is an 8 handed play (including doubling of parts) and a run time of around two hours, with a convenient place for a break midway.

A beautifully wrought modern fairy tale from master storyteller and award-winning author Nancy Werlin Inspired by the classic folk ballad “Scarborough Fair,” this is a wonderfully riveting novel of suspense, romance, and fantasy. Lucy is seventeen when she discovers that she is the latest recipient of a generations-old family curse that requires her to complete three seemingly impossible tasks or risk falling into madness and passing the curse on to the next generation. Unlike her ancestors, though, Lucy has family, friends, and other modern resources to help her out. But will it be enough to conquer this age-old evil?

Scarborough Fair and Other Stories includes ten works by the author of the Nebula Award–winning The Healer’s War and many other novels. In “Final Vows,” Mu Mao the Magnificent, the feline bodhisattva from Scarborough’s novel Last Refuge, helps guide a reincarnated cat in solving the mystery of his own betrayal and murder. “Whirlwinds” takes place on the Diné Trail of Tears, when the US military force-marched ninety-five hundred Navajo people from their ancient, sacred homeland to the barren Bosque Redondo area surrounding New Mexico’s Fort Sumner. A coveted princess packs on pounds when a disgruntled suitor casts an evil spell on her in “Worse Than the Curse.” How is a plump princess to cope? And “Long Time Coming Home,” cowritten with Scarborough’s fellow Vietnam veteran Rick Reaser, is a story of the battles and ghosts many vets face after returning from the war. These and other stories capably demonstrate Scarborough’s breadth of skill.
