Nancy Sleekit And Howard's Revenge
T0678729580
Anna Hepburn and Finlay MacLean present two captivating Victorian entertainments written by Donald Campbell. Nancy Sleekit is no woman to meddle with. Recently widowed, she regales us in expressive Scots and acerbic wit, with tales of her three husbands, their many failings and untimely ends. Along the way we are entertained by rich cameos of the low life in Edinburgh's Auld Reekie. Howard's Revenge tells the story of Irish actor-manager JB Howard, who is engaged by the Theatre Royal, Edinburgh to perform the role of Rob Roy MacGregor - but behind the scenes lurks a conspiracy! Can acting genius Henry Irving be trusted? What are the motives of theatre manager Robert Wyndham? A story of skulduggery surfaces!
