About the event

Aphra’s back! Play reading: Sir Patient Fancy by Aphra Behn
An open public reading of Aphra Behn’s smash hit comedy of 1678.

About this Event

The names of the characters – Sir Patient Fancy and his young wife Lucia, the rake Wittmore, Lady Knowell and Sir Credulous Easy – hint at the spicy themes running through this delicious farce written by our first professional female playwright in her prime.

The reading is another exciting opportunity further to explore Canterbury’s rich dramatic heritage.
