Three Restoration Comedies

Wit, scandal, and bawdy humour collide in this Penguin collection of Restoration theatre at its finest. These plays crackle with sexual intrigue, social satire, and the kind of razor-sharp dialogue that makes you understand why 17th-century London audiences couldn't get enough. Full of scheming lovers, disguises, and deliciously wicked wordplay, this is British comedy before it learned to behave itself. Perfect for theatre lovers, literature students, or anyone who enjoys their classics with a cheeky grin.
