NOV. 20—30
Playhouse Creatures
by April De Angelis | directed by Julia Jamison

Rivalries and relationships that develop between the first actresses to grace the London stage are exposed both offstage and on, as we voyeuristically peek in on the dressing room antics and heroic performances of this all-women cast. Set in the time of Charles II, four famous Restoration actresses, including Nell Gwynn, navigate their way through their precarious careers with wit, charm and spunk.
