The Passion Flower Hotel
von Roger Longrigg
Written by Roger Longrigg and dramatised for radio by Bert Coules, The Passion Flower Hotel offers an amusing look at adolescent sexuality in 1962, before the advent of birth control and the Sexual Revolution. Set in the prestigious Bryant House Academy for the daughters of the wealthy, the story unfolds as the gym is covertly transformed into the Passion Flower Hotel, where young gentlemen from the nearby Longcombe School can gather to learn about romance and relationships.
This delightful tale features a range of characters and escapades, including a strip-club and bordello designed to benefit the students. With a cast of engaging characters, the narrative showcases Longrigg's sharp wit and storytelling prowess, making it a memorable exploration of youth and desire.
