The Roaring Girl

This was an interesting play from the 1700s where a transvestite Moll is the hero. Sebastian can't marry the woman Mary of his choice so he asks Moll to help him out. Moll pretends to be his partner. At first the father is relieved just that it isn't Moll that Sebastian wants to marry. In the end the father respects both women. This was kind of groundbreaking but I just thought it was ok. There were bettter plays from the 1700s.
