The Engagement

 

A young heroine in love and despair, a scheming widow hungry for revenge and scandal and a handsome rake with a passion for bed-hopping.

A lust triangle of suspense, intrigue and saucy wordplay ensues in this costume drama pastiche menagerie, inspired by Shakespeare’s comedies, Restoration innuendo and hint of Austen via a Victorian Penny Dreadful.

The characters are ridiculous, the plot riddled with wit, the moral of the story is… a pox on morals. Join the seemingly virtuous Miss Eustacia Purdue as she attempts to retain her reputation in a world of vice, corruption and sordid back alley fumblings.

 

Tickets £8 (£6 concessions).
