Next Week, East Lynne

Synopsis

American television comedy western series loosely based upon Asa Mercer’s efforts to bring civilisation to old Seattle by importing marriageable women from the east coast of the United States in the 1860s, where the ravages of the American Civil War left towns there short of men. In this episode Candy has arranged for The Great Western Shakespeare Company to give a performance of one of Shakespeare’s plays in Seattle
