The Libertine November 20, 2010

He was the most notorious rake of the Restoration Age. Meet the Second Earl of Rochester (the Libertine), a complex and fascinating man who reveled in debauchery and the arts. He was an English poet, anti-monarchist Royalist, and an atheist who later converted to Christianity. This provocative and witty play centers on the moment his cynicism is confounded when he falls in love with an actress and his hedonistic lifestyle catches up with him. The evening performance on Sunday, November 14th will benefit Nazareth Housing - tickets are $50 and include post-show reception.
