1. Playhouse Creatures - Orange Tree Theatre

About: It's the swinging (16)60s, and 'the merry monarch' Charles II is on the throne. After violent civil war, England's theatres have finally reopened and, for the first time, women are allowed to perform in public.

In the West End, grande dame Mrs Betterton (Anna Chancellor) rules the roost. But there's a new face in town: an orange-seller with dreams of stardom.

From dressing-room camaraderie to bitter rivalry, April De Angelis' gloriously exuberant, bawdily funny and deeply poignant play celebrates five women grabbing this newfound freedom and making their way in an unfamiliar world. But at what price?

When: 15 March - 12 April 2025.
