Two light-hearted one act plays explore the theme of love in an early decade of the 20th century. Love that is fought for and fought over – forever lost? And faithfully won?
Overtones (1915) by pioneering American writer Alice Gerstenberg is a seminal work for depicting split personalities on stage.
When Cupid Came to Earl’s Court (1911) by prolific author and playwright Cosmo Hamilton.
The players are local actors who have met through various routes to put on these two short plays. We have set both plays in the Earl’s Court area known at that time for its upwardly mobile trajectory inhabited by those with social and monetary stability and whose manners were culturally urbanite.
