The Town-Fopp: or, Sir Timothy Tawdrey is a Restoration comedy written by Aphra Behn and first staged in 1676.
A heavy drinker, Calverley stabbed his wife and killed two of his children in 1605, but these crimes are not related in Wilkins' play which contrives a happy ending.
[3] In Behn's play the unhappy couple manage to dissolve their marriage and seek happiness with other partners.
In a subplot, Tawdrey plots to revenge himself upon Bellmour by using a mock marriage to trick his sister (Phillis) into having sex with him.
[4] Montague Summers felt that The Town Fop showed 'in a marked degree her intimate knowledge of the earlier dramatists'.
