Item details
April, 1794. In the first years of the French Revolutionary War, secret societies like the " Friends of the People'' are regarded by the Tory Government as treasonous. Just when the Sheriff of Lanark is coming to
investigate Drumlie, the Provost of the Town finds rebels in his own home. Two strolling players come to his rescue. This broad comedy, based on the one-acter The Friends of the People, returns after half a century to Drumlie, and even to the two sisters of " The Honours''. It was first presented in 1970 at the Edinburgh Festival by Edinburgh People's Theatre.
