Playhouse Creatures

By April de Angelis

The year is 1669, a bawdy and troublesome time. Theatres have just reopened after seventeen years of Puritan suppression. There is a huge surge in dramatic writing and the first English actresses appear on stage! Playhouse Creatures focuses on five of these women - Nell Gwyn, Elizabeth Farley, Rebecca Marshall, Doll Common and Mary Betterton - to provide a moving and often comic account of the precarious lives of these pioneering actresses.

This is an incredible ensemble piece with 5 powerhouse female roles!

Open auditions:

Friday 6 February, 7pm-10pm - Progress Theatre, Foyer
Monday 9 February, 7pm-10pm - Park United Reform Church, Small Hall
