Clever as Paint: the Rossettis in Love

Synopsis:
Art, craft, love, death, necrophilia and a pair of opera trousers  a wickedly funny reappraisal of the painting circle of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, his wife Lizzie Siddal, and his protege William Morris. After Siddal's suicide, Rossetti buried his love poems in her coffin. Seven years later he dug them up again, publishing them to please his new lover and model, Janey Morris (wife of William Morris). Strangely beautiful, witty and compassionate, Clever As Paint offers fresh insights into the boundaries between art, grief, inspiration and despair.

Mrs Ruskin

Synopsis:
John Ruskin was the greatest British art critic and social commentator of the Victorian Age. In Mrs Ruskin we enter his much talked about private life - his relationship with his wife Effie and her younger sister Sophie, his mother Margaret and the Pre-Raphaelite painter John Everett Millais. Intriguing, tantalising and somewhat shocking, Mrs Ruskin tells a tale of the most famous Victorian, bar Victoria. the play presents a world of Pre-Raphelites, love and sexual repression as experienced by the women in Ruskin's life.
