LORD
ARTHUR'S BED
by Martin Lewton
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 and comical story, two modern men find a hidden
history and some
uncomfortable truths that threaten to wreck their new life together.
"a raw play that tackles homosexual
issues head on " Brighton Argus
"an evening of gay delight"
