Last week, you learned about the individual lives of the playwright Aphra Behn and the actress Nell Gwyn. On today's episode, present day writer and actor Claire Louise Amias joins us to talk about these women's sisterhood and shares some fun anecdotes about each of them. Claire trained as an actor at trained at RADA and Bretton Hall and has appeared both on screen and on stage. After becoming obsessed with the writer/spy Aphra Behn, Claire  wrote and performed in her one-woman play "The Masks of Aphra Behn" at the Women and War festival in 2016. Three years later, she released "Oranges & Ink," a play about our two sisters in today's episode. "Oranges & Ink" recently won an Off West End ‘OnComm’ Award! You can watch both of Claire's plays in a double bill on scenesaver.co.uk for free—we highly recommend that you do! We hope you enjoy this conversation with Claire and learn as much as we did!
