It's a time of passion and confusion. Virtue is barely holding
down its petticoats. People are bursting their corsets with
unbridled desire. It's 1885, and the typewriter and the suffrage
movement are sending things topsy-turvy. In the midst of it all,
five ambitious New Women and one Newish Man struggle to find their
way. Miss Mary Barfoot runs a school for secretaries with her young
lover, Miss Rhoda Nunn. But when the Misses Madden - spinsters
Virginia and Alice and beautiful young Monica - arrive, along with
the attractive Dr. Everard Barfoot, things can never be the
same.
Age of Arousal is a lavish, sexy, frenetic ensemble piece about
the forbidden and gloriously liberated self - genre-busting,
rule-bending, and ambitiously original.
