The Lady Demands Satisfaction
by Arthur M. Jolly
This Memorial Day Weekend, join us under the stars for Acme’s annual Free Comedy in the Park – a sword-slinging, family-friendly, queer-down-to-our-toes, feminist, farce!
Trothe Pepperston is a young maiden who has never touched a sword. But the sudden death of her uncle plunges her head-long into an epic battle to defend her inheritance. Along the way, she struggles with a milksop suitor, a servant girl posing as a Prussian fencing master, the actual Prussian fencing master who believes he is there to marry her, a stodgy lord, and her sword-master aunt.
Audience members are encouraged to bring their own lawn-chairs or blankets. Warm layers are strongly encouraged - Act 2 is more fun if you are cozy!
