Lust

Aft er their smash-hit success A Slice of Saturday Night, The Heather Brothers have collaborated once again in the wildly entertaining musical Lust, which premièred in London at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket in 1993.

Based upon Wycherley's Th e Country Wife, this rollicking Restoration revel throws off the shackles of Puritan austerity in a high spirited celebration of "the noblest urge bestowed on us". Ribaldry, romance and drama abound in the hilarious tale of Horner, a notorious
London libertine. He charms and seduces his way into the hearts and boudoirs of society ladies, while practising elaborate deceptions so as to be trusted by the foolish husbands as a eunuch and chaperon to ladies of quality.
