Work:: Restoring the Repertoire (S2073865600)
Production:: The Old Debauchees (1732)/Somebody Else (1844) (T01287291258)
Script in Hand readings.
The Old Debauchees - History is laced with tales of how men prey on women and how women employ intellect and wit to counter unwelcome and presumptuous advances. These two short plays, from the pens of two very accomplished authors of the period, illustrate how two different eras deal with the eternal problem. In passing, Fielding takes every opportunity to castigate the hypocrisy of the Catholic church whilst Planch? has great fun at the expense of the 19th century reality of arranged marriages.
