"[2] There are records of Polewheele's having written three plays: Elysium, "possibly a religious masque,"[1] now lost; The Faythfull Virgins, a tragedy in rhyme; and The Frolicks, a comedy.

[2] The Frolicks was possibly performed by the Duke's Company in 1671 at the new Dorset Garden Theatre; it features Clarabell, a witty Restoration heroine, and Rightwit, a rake.

[4] On October 11–12, 2021, second year students of the Shakespeare and Performance program at Mary Baldwin University in Staunton, Virginia[5] premiered the first confirmed full length production of The Frolicks.

The show was produced by the program and directed by Sara Hymes and Gregory Jon Phelps, two members of the Hedgepig Ensemble located in Brooklyn, New York.
