How to Win Against History

A fierce and fabulous costume drama musical about Henry Cyril Paget, the 5th Marquis of Anglesey. Born in 1875, poised to inherit the Empire, he instead burned brightly, briefly and transvestitely; blowing his family’s godlike wealth putting on sparkling, diamond-studded plays… with him in them… to which nobody came. When he died, his family burnt every record of his life they could find, and carried on as though he’d never been.

A hilarious, ripped-up new extravaganza by Seiriol Davies about being too weird for the world, but desperately not wanting it to forget you.
