Nell Gwynn
Nell Gwynn by Jessica Swale directed by Dave King ' Superbly funny...a juicy, well-wrought thing of great fun, a wonderfully layered celebration of theatre, but most of all an apt homage to a woman incredibly ahead of her time ' - Time Out London, 1660. King Charles II has exploded onto the scene with a love of all things theatrical, extravagant and sexy. And at Drury Lane, a young Nell Gwynn is causing a stir. Nell Gwynn charts the rise of an unlikely heroine, from her humble roots to her success as Britain's most celebrated actress, and her hard-won place in the heart of the King. But at a time when women are second-class citizens, can her charm, spirit and the love of the King protect her from the dangers of the Court? Written by Jessica Swale (Blue Stockings) this exhilarating play won the Olivier Award for Best New Comedy in 2016. An amateur production by arrangement with Nick Hern Books. Nell Gwynn contains bawdy humour and sexual references. Recommended age 12+. Tickets 17 | 14 concession | 20 supporter ticket Concessions: over 60, unwaged, children under 16yrs and students.

Twelfth Night
Join The Lord Chamberlains Men this summer, in their 21st year, for Shakespeares greatest romantic comedy, Twelfth Night. With a history stretching back to William Shakespeares original company, they present this joyous play as he first saw it in the open air, with an all male cast and Elizabethan costumes, music and dance. If music be the food of love play on! Orsino, Duke of Illyria, is desperately in love with Countess Olivia. But she, in mourning for her brother, has sworn off all men. Suddenly Viola, separated from her twin brother in a shipwreck and now disguised as a man, enters Orsinos court as his servant and turns everyones world upside down. Sent to woo Olivia on Orsinos behalf, Viola is stunned to find herself the object of Olivias affections and, as Olivia falls in love with Viola, so Viola falls in love with Orsino. Add Violas twin brother Sebastian into the mix and the scene is set! O time, thou must untangle this, not I. It is too hard a knot for me to untie. Romantic confusion, mistaken identity, infamous cross-gartered yellow stockings and riotous disorder abounds in Shakespeares hilarious and lyrical romantic comedy about love, its many and glorious facets, and the mess it can make of us all. Nothing that is so, is so. Bring a chair and a picnic and prepare to be entertained and transported. Book early to avoid missing out!
