As To Be Naked by Lucy Gough

Plas Newydd (the home of 'the Ladies'), Llangollen.  June 29, 1994

The true nature of their relationship, whether sexual or not, remains a mystery and Gough's device of creating a play within a play where a theatre company is seen rehearsing a production about 'the Ladies' is an ideal way of exploring the puzzle. ...charmingly portrayed insight into 'the Ladies' lives and the society they lived in."
