Mandrake
A young man in 17th century London pursues a seemingly impossible goal: seducing the irresistible but proper young wife of a foolish old lawyer. With the help of trusted friends and allies, as unlikely as the local parson and the girl’s own mother, a plot is hatched to trick the hapless lawyer into enthusiastically thrusting the young man into his young wife’s bed. Blending original textual research with a playful modern performance style, London’s Foul Papers Theatre Company presents the world premiere of this 350-year-old English adaptation of Machiavelli’s great satire ‘La Mandragola’.
