The Astonishing Adventures of Kitty and Peg

A fast paced, cheeky, period backstage farce.

Join us for THE ASTONISHING ADVENTURES OF KITTY AND PEG, a hilarious two-hander set in 1745 at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane.

This uproarious period farce stars English actress Kitty Clive, famed for her voice, and Irish actress Peg Woffington, known for playing men. When they’re suddenly sacked, they resort to outrageous schemes: spreading fake news, staging fights, and accidentally poisoning the cross-dressing puppeteer Charlotte “Mr Brown” Charke. Will they win back their jobs, face execution, or will the public’s love of scandal save them?

Fast-paced and cheeky, the show promises plenty of laughs and even a bit of women wrestling!
