Summary of the Program:
The 1660s - a very eventful decade!
Poor beggars on the rat infested London streets watch hungrily as Lord Snuff and Lady Merryjig flaunt themselves at King Charles II's Restoration celebrations.
But, as the Puritans predict, this will all lead to no good.
Very soon afterwards the Great Fire and Plague indiscriminately claim their victims.
With extracts from Samuel Pepys' diary and a variety of songs and dances, this musical recalls the swinging 1660s.
Wear comfortable clothes and shoes... don't forget to bring your lunch, some healthy snacks, and a water bottle!
