First staged in 1838, this melodramatic tale provides a fascinating insight into early Victorian drama, with the added piquancy of being revived in the very theatre where it had its premiere. Set in and around St Leonard's Priory, the play is both a ripping yarn and an historical talking piece. A presentation arranged by Stamford Museum of a play written by Thomas Fricker, a Stamford newspaper editor. In 1838, and performed by Stamford Shoestring Theatre.| 24 Sep 04 | Stamford Arts Centre Stamford, Lincolnshire Performance Details => Venue archive |
