Sam and I

Synopsis:
Samuel Pepys? . . . His Diary! . . . His World!! . . . His Women!!! How do you think his wife felt? What was it like being married to a serial sex addict? In the lifetime of Elizabeth Pepys - a Royal [called Charles] betrayed his wife and installed his mistress [!] whilst Parliament waged an unpopular war igniting public protests on the streets [!] She lived through tragic epidemics [the plague] and catastrophic disasters [the Fire of London] In this hour long solo show, fifteen figures of the Pepys circle. From the highest in the land to the most menial are brought to life as Elizabeth wrestles with the reality of her life. Three Hundred years later, it's not History - its Herstory! . . .And now it's our story.
