Add to basketNeuware - 'And So to Bed' is a witty and charming three-act comedy by J. B. Fagan that reimagines a day in the life of the celebrated seventeenth-century diarist Samuel Pepys. Set in Restoration London, the play captures the vibrant social atmosphere and linguistic flair of the era while infusing it with a modern sense of humor. The narrative centers on Pepys's various romantic misadventures and his ongoing efforts to navigate the complexities of his marriage to Elizabeth Pepys, who remains perpetually suspicious of her husband's wandering eye.The work is a masterful tribute to the spirit of the Restoration stage, blending historical detail with lighthearted farce and clever dialogue. Fagan explores themes of domestic rivalry, social status, and the human inclination toward vanity and flirtation. As a significant theatrical success of the early twentieth century, 'And So to Bed' provides a delightful and humanizing portrait of one of history's most famous observers. It is a quintessential read for lovers of historical drama, classic comedy, and English literary history, offering a vivid window into the scandals and triumphs of post-Restoration society.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
