For a
play whose title is so ambiguous, its plot points and production couldn’t be more ambitious.

OR, is an amusing and revealing historification
take on the Western world’s first recognized woman playwright, and her supposed
relationships with Charles II, the King of England, and Nell Gwynn, one of the
most famous actresses of her time.
The Dobama production is long on farce and fine acting! It makes for a entertaining evening of
theatre.
Mark Horning
If your choice is to stay at home and binge watch
the newest drivel from TV Land OR to see a really great production, you are
strongly advised to pick the latter OR regret your choice. The show is fresh and funny and puts real
people in historic situations that show that not much has changed in 345
years Or so. Trust that your time will not be
wasted in this evening of madcap farce and hisdromedy that promises to be one
of the hits of the season. Do not miss
this show OR you will be sORry.

While this may not be entirely satisfying for some scholars, the show is loaded with rich wordplay, some biographical elements, and modern language suffused with a Restoration comedy flavor.
