Susanna Centlivre ( sent-LIV-ər or sent-LEE-vər; born Susanna Freeman; baptised 1669 – 1 December 1723), also known professionally as Susanna Carroll, was an English poet, actress, and "the most successful female playwright of the eighteenth century". Centlivre's "pieces continued to be acted after the theatre managers had forgotten most of her contemporaries." During a long career at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, she became known as the second woman of the English stage, after Aphra Behn. (From Wikipedia) More about Susanna Centlivre:
