“Coffee shops and tooth-worm, smuggling and mouse-skin eyebrows? Amid the fascinating trivia of mid-eighteenth century life, Mary Cowper De Grey recounts the true story of a group of Ladies of Quality who determined to make Shakespeare fashionable. Mary also has a very personal tale to recount – her involvement with a young and ambitious would-be actor... David Garrick.
|
| Mrs Cowper De Grey then introduces her surprise guest – and the Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen of the audience are told a very different tale – of a London unseen by People of Quality.” |  |
