Archives - Lock Up Your Daughters

by Bernard Miles
From Fielding’s ‘Rape upon Rape’

Directed by Winifred Butler

Wednesday 12th – Saturday 22nd April 1972 in the Auditorium

A musical romp (which opened The Mermaid in 1959) based upon Henry Fielding’s Rape Upon Rape. There is no rape but hilarious situations, beautiful period costumes and very catchy tunes and lyrics by Laurie Johnson and Lionel Bart. You will love Ramble and Hilaret, laugh against Squeezum, be exasperated with Politic and cheer when it all ends happily ever after with the rousing chorus of Lock Up Your Daughters.
