The School For Scandal
04 June 2024 to 08 June 2024
About The School For Scandal
By Richard B Sheridan
With Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air, RSC and Shakespeare’s Globe star Joseph Marcell
Gossip never goes out of fashion.
Sir Peter Teazle (Joseph Marcell) believes his young wife is sleeping with someone else. She isn’t.
But she’s starting to think if her husband believes it, she may as well give it a go. After all, if you’re going to cause a scandal, you might as well enjoy it…
Deliciously naughty and outrageously silly, this timeless comedy is a masterclass in social satire and the art of gossip.
Reimagined into the 20th century and featuring an unforgettable cast of larger-than-life characters, each armed with a lacerating wit, The School for Scandal is one of the greatest comedies ever written.
Expect a lightning-paced evening of romance, revenge and rollicking fun that promises to leave you entertained, enamoured – and perhaps even a little scandalised.
