Lettice and Lovage (2002)

Originated by the great Maggie Smith, Lettice of the play’s title “Lettice and Lovage” is a guide at Fustian Hall who shows glum, raincoated tourists round what appears to be the drabbiest, most boring stately home in all England. As group follows group onto its main staircase, her spiel gets more and more extravagant. History is her hobby and eccentricity her vocation, seen by the usage of “lovage” as one of the many herbs in the imitation-Elizabethan liquer Lettice brews in her kitchen. The one true event that happened in the dreary old home records the knighthood of an early Fustian by the visiting Elizabeth I after he prevented her from tripping, leaping over nine steps to save the Glorianna from “certain death”. However entertaining this story may be, it does not please Lotte Schoen, the head of the concervatory agency that employs Lettice, who watches her employee’s every move.

Knickers in a Twist (2001)

A Victorian romp based on factual people and events in 1860s Paris, “Knickers in a Twist” was adapted from the German play “Die Hose”, commonly known as “The Underpants”, which was written in 1910. The setting was pushed back 50 years by local writer Kate Carter and transported to the cobblestones of Paris. Seen as a “dark comedy”, the play follows the fallout of a married couple when a Councellor’s wife’s “knickers” fall down in public. This scene causes a commotion among the men in town who then rent rooms at her husband’s home to try to seduce the young wife.

Into The Night (2000)

Two families, more than a century apart, take turns occupying the same house and experiencing the same joys and wonderment at what the night can sometimes offer, provided disbelief is suspended, if only temporarily. In the process, both they and the audience are treated to the diverse entertainments of musicians, dancers and other performers. Commanding the festivities is the Wizard. He is easily vexed and can make you disappear forever if you annoy him. Conceived and written by Doug Lintula and directed by Richard Vaillancourt, Into the Night celebrates the mysteries of life that especially come alive in the dark, when the world is largely invisible and almost anything can be thought possible.
