Playhouse Creatures
A play by Aril De Angelis set in the London theatrical milieu of the 17th Century.
It is 1660 and Charles II permits actresses to perform on stage for the first time. These became known as the ‘playhouse creatures’ and the play brings these characters to life, characters who are slightly ageing but well-connected or conformist young ladies.
All is well until a brash youngster, Nell Gwyn comes along, determined to improve her life from orange-seller to actress even though ‘actress’ to most gentlemen of the time was a bad thing. Were they coming to appreciate the dramatic talent or for other less salubrious intentions?
This play is a juicy and hilarious historical drama with strong language and themes of an adult nature.
