This interactive drama event will bring landmarks of the Restoration stage to life. A counterpart to the West End Theatre walking tour taking place on 8 and 15 November, the activity will focus on the first women to perform on and write for the London stage, including Nell Gwyn and Aphra Behn. Actors Natasha Dawn and Tom Hunter will perform a selection of scenes from Restoration plays, and give insights into their performance contexts, including through audience interaction and (optional) participation. The actors will reflect on their experience of acting in and directing Restoration plays today.

Please note the session will include sexual language and themes from the period.

This event is part of the Cultures of London event series led by Northeastern University London.
