Nell Gwynn at Haslemere Museum 27 – 29 July 2017
‘All round, this would rank with the best open-air theatre experiences – professional or amateur – I’ve had’. – FARNHAM HERALD
‘This is an excellent evening’s entertainment by this accomplished Surrey theatre company. If you can get tickets don’t delay, you won’t regret it’ ★★★★★ – ESSENTIAL SURREY
‘Fine casting, able direction by Laura Sheppard, great performances by all involved. Superb setting; majestic stage set with its back-drop of huge trees; picnic; bubbly; warm summer evening. Thanks Charles II for promoting England’s theatre! Guildburys at their best in this 5 star production.’ – NODA
The story of orange seller, Nell Gwynn, is as colourful as a novel – yet it is true. Nell’s rise from the misery of Coal Yard Alley to become Britain’s first celebrity actress, winning the heart of the king along the way, is the stuff of dreams. But there is a price to pay. At a time when women are little more than possessions, can her undoubted charm and indomitable spirit protect her from the court plotters and schemers? And what will be the cost?
Guildburys are a community theatre company and Nell Gwynn is an amateur performance by arrangement with Nick Hern Books.
