Lord Arthur's Bed
King's Head Theatre, London, Kings Head Pub Islington
Fri, 26th March 2010 - Sun, 28th March 2010
From £16.00*

2008 - City slickers Donald and Jim are celebrating their civil partnership. 1868 - Wealthy young cross-dressers Ernest (Stella) and Fred (Fanny) are celebrating Stella's 'marriage' to Lord Arthur Clinton MP. LORD ARTHUR'S BED weaves these two stories together, dramatizing the farcical trial that gripped the nation 25 years before the downfall of Oscar Wilde. In Fanny and Stella's extraordinary, comical and true story that led them to a sensational trial before the Lord Chief Justice of England in 1870, two modern men find a hidden history and some uncomfortable truths that threaten to wreck their new life together. Opening at the Brighton Festival in May 2008, the play , which contains nudity and scenes of gay sex, was denounced in the Brighton Argus for being performed in a church. Their reviewer later described it as “a raw play that tackles homosexual issues head on.” The cast includes Spencer Charles Noll who won the Michael MacLiammoir award for best actor for LORD ARTHUR'S BED at the 2009 Absolut Dublin Gay Theatre Festival. **** Reviews “An evening of gay delight” Manchester Evening News “A raw play that tackles homosexual issues head on” Brighton Argus
