A world premiere play by Kate Hamill Directed by Rob Lutfy The Little Fellow is a risqué comedic drama loosely based on the life and tell-all memoirs of the 19th century’s most famous courtesan – Harriette Wilson, also known as The Little Fellow. Since the age of thirteen, Harriet has navigated through the pitiless and glamorous world of the British regency’s demi-monde: eventually becoming the “top of the bottom” as the self-styled Queen of Tarts. Her defiance of social conventions and refusal to be a lady have attracted many patrons – included some of the country’s most distinguished and high-powered men. But Harriet wants to get out of the ‘business’… and she has a plan. A plan that may threaten her reputation, her business, and ultimately, her life – as she confronts the cost of winning in an unjust world. This World Premiere received its first reading through the Bill and Judy Garrett Finish Line Commission. Advisories: Mature humor, sexual content, mature & sexual themes, and depictions of violence. The production also contains smoke/haze effects and flashing lights. Related links: Cygnet Theatre website | Instagram | Facebook
