Androboros Review. America’s First Play: Political, Satirical, Scatological

New York Theater: Nearly everything about “Androboros” makes it sound like a must-see show. It was America’s first published play, printed in 1714, yet there is no record it has ever been publicly performed until this production by the Peculiar Works Project. The playwright, Robert Hunter, ruled as Governor of New York, and his play is reportedly rooted in stories that are true, bizarre and occasionally scatological.
