Runaway

Hannah Cowley

Runaway marks the debut play of Cowley, first brought to life at Drury Lane by the renowned actor-manager David Garrick in 1776. This captivating tale quickly garnered success, inspiring Cowley to pen two more plays by the end of the year. The story revolves around George Hargrave, who wishes to marry Emily, a spirited runaway and ward of his godfather. However, family pressures loom as Georges father insists he wed the wealthy but much older Lady Dinah. Will true love ultimately prevail in this delightful drama? - Summary by ToddHW This show includes AI-generated content.
