A special talk-back for Theatre Lovers Club follows the 2 pm performance of OR. We'll then go across to Upper Crust for pizza together and to discuss the show.
Those who wish may then go to the 7:30 performance of Born With Teeth.
OR, and BORN WITH TEETH are two witty and seductive plays about three salacious wordsmiths: Will Shakespeare, Kit Marlowe, and Aphra Behn.
What do William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, Aphra Behn, King Charles II, and Nell Gwynne have in common? They appear in one of the two plays in repertory written by Liz Duffy Adams.
OR, directed by Zoe Burke, is set against a background of a long, drawn-out war and a counterculture of free love, cross-dressing, and pastoral lyricism. The 1660s look a lot like the 1960s in this neo-Restoration comedy about the life of Aphra Behn; poet, spy, and first professional female playwright.
BORN WITH TEETH, directed by Antonio Miniño, is set against the backdrop of an aging ruler, an oppressive police state, and a restless, polarized people seething with paranoia: it’s a dangerous time for poets. Two of them—the marvelous Kit Marlowe and up-and-comer Will Shakespeare—meet in the back room of a pub to collaborate on a history play cycle, navigate the perils of art under a totalitarian regime, and flirt like men with everything to lose. One of them may well be the death of the other.
