A Playhouse New Drama production in association with Cheltenham Poetry Festival.
In this drama with smiles and laughter, two Cheltenham women cheer up Oscar Wilde, who is dying, exiled and lonely, in Paris. Amelia and Christina, campaigners for women’s voting rights, seek Oscar’s support. Amelia believes that poems, songs, and marches will secure women’s suffrage. But Christina insists on something more dramatic: like plays or even civil disobedience. Oscar’s response, at first amusing and bemusing, becomes disruptive until it brings reconciliation about the suffrage movement’s future.
Howard Timms’ seventh Playhouse New Drama production is devised as a fundraiser for Cheltenham Poetyry Festival and The Playhouse.
Price: £12.00 / £10.00
