Introduction
Set in the London of the early '60's when it was not quite Carnaby Street and the Beatles but more jazz and bedsits, this witty and zany comedy became quite a cult on both stage and films as expressing the essence of the era.
Three ill-matched young men share a house in Bayswater. When an innocent young girl, newly arrived in London and looking for the YMCA, wanders in, relationships and situations develop at an hilarious, complex and ludicrous pace.
The knack in question is the ability to get women ... Tolen has the knack, Colin desperately wants the knack, whilst Tom seems more concerned with bringing Tolen down to size ... and Nancy seems such a simple, straightforward young girl.
