Dead Man’s Hand: The Roaring Girl

Two Pence Theatre Co. proudly announces the second year of their popular reading series Dead Man’s Hand. Featuring 90 minute cuts of plays written by Shakespeare’s peers, friends and frenemies.

Based on the real life thief Mary Frith “most notorious female member of 17th-century England’s underworld” The Roaring Girl centers on Moll Cutpurse, just a cross dressing lady trying to mind her own. But marked as the town’s Girl You Least Want To Marry, she suddenly finds herself the center of everybody’s nasty business. Come get the first peak of our unique adaptation of this incredible play, slated for a full Two Pence production in 2015. Part of the new Greenhouse Theatre Trellis Reading Series.
