2000s:Christmas in Covent Garden anyone?
Tilly Hunter has fabulous friends, her dream job as a make-up artist with a prestigious opera company and Felix, her kind and caring husband to be. It looks set to be the most perfect Christmas yet!
But when a monumental blunder forces her to work closely with new IT director Marcus Walker, it’s not only the roast chestnut stalls on the cobbles of her beloved Covent Garden that cause sparks to fly…
Super serious and brooding, Marcus hasn’t got a creative bone in his sharp-suited body. For technophobe Tilly, it’s a match made in hell.
And yet, when Tilly discovers her fiancé isn’t at all what he seems, it’s Marcus who’s there for her with a hot chocolate and a surprisingly strong shoulder to cry on … He might just be the best Christmas present she’s ever had.
The area of the city well known for its market and cobblestones making this an ideal location at the best of times, but for Christmas, then it’s ideal!
Scenes of Christmas trees, snow, family gatherings and a visit to the theatre or opera house.
What else goes on in Convent Garden? Well you’d be surprised. What about a Christmas lego display or a Christmas pudding race?
Then it’s behind the scenes of an opera theatre at Christmas and all the mad planning that entails. The behind the scenes are even busier than the excitement and bustle of the auditorium – the costume changes and the waiting in the wings is described by someone who knows and loves theatre!And you always need a theatre of some kind at Christmas!
