Rotten Perfect

Work:: Rotten Perfect (S2087273969)

The Lyceum Theatre in 1890s London. Actor Manager Henry Irving is doing everything he can to keep his theatre up and running performing only the classics, and keep his star actress, the famous Ellen Terry, from leaving for good. (Local history buffs will know she was briefly married to GF Watts.) Will she be lured away by the new scripts of Ibsen (touted by the influential Bernard Shaw) and seek new roles elsewhere? And behind the scenes is the costume designer, Alice Comyns Carr, attempting to create that famous beetle-wing dress for Lady Macbeth, and the young actor Sedgwick who tries too hard to get it right. It's all 'rotten perfect' in this delightful new script regarding the famous theatrical partnership during a time of great change in the London theatres.
