Not: Lady Chatterley’s Lover - A parody of Lady Chatterley’s Lover by DH Lawrence.
★★★★★ "A perfectly crafted production of comic genius." Mind the Blog
★★★★★ “Will quite simply leave you wiping the tears of laughter from your face.” Fairy Powered Productions
★★★★★ "Pacy, but poignant. Raunchy, yet reflective." Gloucestershire Echo
★★★★ “A hilarious watch, constantly charming and remains true to the spirit of D.H. Lawrence’s work.” Ed Fringe Reviews
“Fear not darling. I shall return with absolutely no physical injuries.”
Lady Chatterley welcomes her husband, Clifford, home from a war that has left the world in tatters. With Clifford’s legs also in tatters, he arrives at Wragby Hall confined to a wheelchair and clutching his secret.
Despite her husband’s impotence, a subject that everyone struggles to avoid, Constance entertains the idea that one day they could have a child. However, as Clifford’s obsession for industrial pursuits heightens, Constance embarks on a passionate and curiously experimental affair with Mellors, the estate gamekeeper.
This laughter-filled parody of the classic D.H. Lawrence novel will bring you high drama, high comedy and highly-raised eyebrows.
