This is a great opportunity to sample some dishes and wine before committing to book your Christmas Party. You may also be able to network on the night and get to know some useful contacts.

THE ROVER

by Aphra Behn

 

Venice. Carnival! Social order is turned on its head. Masters become servants and servants their masters; identities hide behind masks; fantasies become deliciously real.

 

Wilmore, a banished Cavalier, flees the austere chill of Cromwell's England and arrives with excitement in Venice. He charms two women: a courtesan, and a young woman about to be forced into a convent by her brother. And Wilmore thrills in pursuing them both.

 

But masks must come off, lanterns burn out, and even fantasy has dangerous consequences. Follow the carnival through passageways and misty canals on a journey of seduction and revenge.

 

Naomi Jones directed Flight Path for Out of Joint and the Bush Theatre. She has also directed as part of Nabakov's Present: Tense project at Southwark Playhouse, and has recently directed Return to Akenfield by Craig Taylor for Eastern Angles.
