Top of PageGads Hill Place
From acclaimed playwright, Brady Schwind (Beautiful Invention, The Cactus Inn Hotel) comes a new comedy about family, art, and the pursuit of inspiration. To the outside world, Charles Dickens is the picture of virtuosity. But behind closed doors, in the sweltering summer heat of '57, he's just another guy in search of a recall on life. Facing separation from his wife, resentful children, hopeless rehearsals for a benefit performance that may never happen, and a new home falling down around his ears, two unexpected visitors are about to change his life forever...Inspired by true events, Gads Hill Place is a fresh and surprisingly contemporary period farce, as moving and honest as it is hilarious in its depiction of the folly of domesticity, and the path to creative rebirth.
