The Roaring Girl
By Thomas Dekker and Thomas Middleton
Abridged by Lucy Bytheway
📍 Crookes Social Club, Mulehouse Rd, Sheffield S10 1TD
🗓️ Tuesday 29th April & Thursday 1st May 2025 Sebastian and Mary are stuck. They're lovers, impeded by Sebastian's father Alexander, who forbids their engagement. A plan is hatched to deceive Alexander of his son's devotion to local legend and social reject Moll Cutpurse, in the hopes of proving Mary a preferable alternative. Unbeknownst to them, Alexander hatches his own plan to incriminate Moll and rid his son of her. The whole while, all Moll wants is to be left alone!
Their conundrum is flanked by the quandaries of the busybodying neighborhood: a chemist and his wife's entanglement with a younger man. An alleged affair of a tailor. A respected father's despair over his gambling son - it's nothing short of bedlam! Featuring live original music from an electric trio, this farcical comedy follows the lives of a mischief-making, pot-stirring ccommunity.
The play's heroine is based on real-life rogue Moll Cutpurse, a notorious figure amongst England's 17th century underworld, who fought, stole, drank, and battled traditional expectations of femininity. This adaptation sees Moll dispute double standards against a backdrop of 1970s northern England, fuelled by a punk, non-conformist characterisation.
This spring at Crookes Social Club you're invited to stomp, shout, and whirl, to laugh and revel at The Roaring Girl.

The only way from the small fountain to Sheha is here. I have filmed wedding blessing videos here and watched the zombie parade on Halloween. Every year when snooker is played, the BBC will do a live show here. There is a table next to it, with two balls in each pocket. You are given a few shots to clear the table. If you clear the table, you will have the opportunity to compete with a famous snooker player.
