Description Or: The Vibrator Play. It is late Victorian England and the lights are going on all over country; Edison has just discovered electricity. But the age of enlightenment has yet to reach the citizens, especially with regard to the marriage bed and repression and male dominance is still rampant. As a result female 'hysteria' is on the increase (it also occurs on occasions in men too!). But with the introduction of electricity a doctor thinks he has invented the perfect cure, the vibrator.
