Playhouse Creatures This tasty historical drama is set during Charles II's reign when, for the first time in English history, women were allowed to perform on the stage. Orange touting Nell Gwyn lies and cheats her way into Mr Betterton’s theatre of foxy females where a fulsome cleavage, well turned calf and comic timing seem to take precedent over talent and experience. The script reflects the bawdy humour of the Seventeenth Century, and just occasionally exposes the dark undertow of vulnerability and expendability that lies just below the glittering surface. Fragile will be touring Playhouse Creatures throughout the summer, tickets for the Bristol shows are available here, with no shows on the Sunday or Monday, details for Liverpool and Bath will be up soon. The Little Black Box has arrived! Visitors to Redland's famous Chandos Road may have noticed some strange noises at No 2 over the past few weeks - well now the secret is out... Fragile Productions' first theatre is now nearing completion and gearing up for its first show! The Little Black Box, on the site of the original Chandos Deli, may be small but we have a raft of exiting plans to roll out over the coming months.
