- Book Synopsis
- Magnetic, nostalgic and gloriously imaginative, a comedy drama from award-winning New York playwright Sarah Ruhl. In an 1800s New York spa town, the birth of electricity has struck a chord with the affluent locals. The young entrepreneurial Dr Givings has installed a new operating theatre for the practice of gynaecology and the treatment of his 'hysteria' patients. A provocative, funny, touching and marvelously entertaining story about a doctor and his wild obsessions with the marvels of vibrator technology.
