The Parson's Wedding


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(5 stars; 3 reviews)

Often considered Killigrew's best play, this is a comedy with a bawdy tone where people flirt, trick each other and everyone else. It was the first play in England to be performed with an all female crew. - Summary by Kristingj

(5 stars)

Quite fun and very unconventional play about women, men, love and relationships, excellently performed by many of Librivox's top actresses! Due to the old fashioned language, the many characters and a quite intricate plot, I would recommend reading a short plot synopsis before listening though.
