Agnes Bangs Morgans Drama At Radcliffe In the Reign of King James
Miss Agnes Bangs Morgans original play In the Reign of King James was staged at Fay House Radcliffe last Saturday for the Cambridge Latin School Club scholarship fund. The three act historical drama set in 1617 concerns a plot against King James I involving Lady Hortense and the Countess of Pembroke, with Queen Anne’s niece Lady Jane uncovering the scheme. The enacting company included Helen Dearborn as King James I and Agnes Morgan as Lady Jane with a romantic denouement as Lord Clavering chooses love over an arranged match. The production, repeated Friday and Saturday, featured beautiful historically correct costumes and settings and drew public attendance.
