(frozen comment) Re: Old drama

I live in England and I have no idea who the hell would miss Oliver Cromwell of all people.
Even though he stepped in after the temporary removal of the monarchy, his reign was incredibly strict and puritanical. Many things from theater to holiday celebrations beyond worshiping in church were outlawed. A lot of people were very unhappy under his rule and pretty much contributed to the return of the monarchy.

To quote a Horrible Histories song:

King Charles, my daddy
Lost his throne
And kings were banned
They chopped off his head
Then Olly Cromwell ruled the land

Old Olly wasn't jolly
He was glum, and he was proud
Would be miserable as sin
Only sinning's not allowed!
When Olly died, the people said
'Charlie, me hearty!
Get rid of his dull laws
Come back, we'd rather party! '
This action's what they called
The monarchy restoration
Which naturally was followed
By a huge celebration!
