Synopsis

Restoration is set in eighteenth-century England: a world of

cruelty, injustice and iron privilege.

Lord Are is forced by poverty

into an unwanted marriage with the daughter of a wealthy mineowner.

One

morning, during breakfast, he commits a bizarre and fatal crime.

He

seeks to pin responsibility for it on his guileless, illiterate

footman, Bob Hedges.

A battle ensues between Bob's black,

justice-hungry wife and the fortified privilege of the ruling classes.

This is a new programme text edition of the play with minor

revisions to the original text and produced for the tour by Oxford

Staeg Company.
