The Basset Table follows the fortunes of Lady Reveller, who runs a table where her friends play the card game basset, and her struggle to avoid marrying Lord Worthy. Meanwhile, Lady Revellers cousin, Valeria, spends her time conducting scientific experiments and dissections, but her father intends to marry her off to the bluff seacaptain Hearty. How can Lady Reveller be persuaded to forego the delights of gambling? And how can Valeria avoid an unwanted marriage? This witty play paints a seductive picture of the thrills of the Restoration gaming table and challenges contemporary stereotypes of the learned lady.Appendices to this Broadview Edition include materials on female education, gambling, and writing for the stage, as well as eighteenth and nineteenthcentury critical writing on Centlivre and The Basset Table.
