OR,

"Sweet, hilarious, and deliciously bawdy ... the show is magic. Please run, do not walk, to OR, as its a party no one who has the chance to go should miss."
New England Theater Geek

OR,

by Liz Duffy Adams
Directed by Adrienne Boris
Presented by Maiden Phoenix and Simple Machine

Spy or poetess? Lust or love? Wrong or righteous? History or comedy?

Aphra Behn is in for a wild night. She's fresh out of debtors prison after leaving behind her life of cloak-and-dagger intrigue. A wealthy impresario has given her just a few hours to write the script that could launch her career in the theatre. The hottest actress in London is vying for a part in her play and a place in her bed. And her former lover, the drunken fugitive spy, comes to town mixed up in a plot to kill her current lover, the reigning King of England. Shell have to be quick with her quill and clever with her kisses, but Aphra Behn just might survive the night, thwart the assassins, get the girl, start a new life, and show the world that a womans place is wherever she damn well pleases.
