seventh stage productions

This quick fire comedy from playwright Liz Duffy Adams and presented by Seventh Stage Productions as part of the SummerWorks Festival manages to be an utter crowd pleaser without resorting to any broad strokes. A wonderfully neat plot about Aphra Behn, an aspiring female playwright with a 9-5 job as a war time spy for King Charles of England, is both a delightful and bawdy comedy of errors and a surprisingly open and insightful examination of issues of gender, sexual politics, and equality. Duffy populates her work with cheeky and likable characters, making for a very welcome break...
