Synopsis
This is a one-night-only staged reading of a mad and stylish 1976 comedy by William M. Hoffman (As Is, Ghosts of Versailles) and Anthony Holland. It's the story of Edward Hyde, 3rd Earl of Clarendon--Lord Cornbury, Royal Governor of NY and NJ, 1701-1708. He is widely acknowledged to have been horribly corrupt, almost certainly the worst colonial governor in history, and quite possibly a transvestite. It's American history--with a twist! Pre-show reception begins at 7:30 with a performance at 8:00pm, plus a post-show discussion with playwright William M. Hoffman.
