‘Like bawdy Shakespeare meets wild Wycherley filtered through the formalised camp of John Osborne’s A Patriot for Me…how wonderful to see the rabid raw talent of Ravenhhill given the full works’ Michael Coveney, Daily Mail It’s London 1726, and Mrs Tull’s got problems. The whores are giving her a hard time, a man in a dress is looking for a job, her husband has a roving eye and the apprentice boy keeps disappearing for ‘a wander’. Meanwhile in 2001 a group of wealthy gay men are preparing for a raunchy party.Mother Clap’s Molly House, a black comedy with songs is a celebration of the diversity of human sexualtiy, an exploration of our need to form families and a fascinatig insight into a hidden chapter in London’s history.’Ravenhill’s writing is tough, eloquent, sardonic, with some of the barbed formality of the Resotration style, which gets brutally peeled off in the present-day scenes. This is not a play you "enjoy". This is not a gay play either…The message of this play is not "Come out", but "Come in".’ John Peter, Sunday Times.’Mark Ravenhill clearly likes to have it both ways. In this wonderfuly exuberant new musical play, he celebrates Sodom like there’s no Gomorrah… Delicate souls may be offended but there is no doubting the sincerity of Ravenhill’s assault on the tranformation of sex into a dirty business.’ Michael Billington, Guardian’A theatrical manifesto for sexual tolerance that teeters wildly between the politics of Bertolt Brecht and the in-your-face deviancy of a gay nightclub… Ravenhill combines graphic sex with a generosity of spirit’ Charles Spencer, Daily Telegraph Mother Clap’s Molly House premiered at the Royal National Theatre, London in October 2001.
