Love's a Luxury is a comedy in three acts written in 1942 by Guy Paxton [1] and Edward V. Hoile.
A theatre man, who seeks a refuge in the country away from the women around him, makes his way to Cranberry Cottage with his leading man. They are met by a young girl who is standing in for her mother who is the housekeeper. Add a crazy camper and allow the wife and girlfriend to arrive with the son and you have the ingredients for a farce.
