Fair Em

Secret identities, unwanted suitors, the Norman Conquest, grain to mill – what’s a Northern lass in love to do? This is the plot of Fair Em, the Miller’s Daughter of Manchester, an anonymous romantic comedy first performed in London, c.1590. The play is one of the best examples of Elizabethan rom-com that would have influenced Shakespeare, and Lord Denney's Players' production may be its first ever North American production!
