Elaborate conspiracies conceal passionate liaisons, families are torn apart, and best friends ready themselves for an impending duel to the death. 'Why then the cause of all this is – LOVE.'
It is summer, and Lydia Languish is yearning for the charming but penniless Ensign Beverley – the cunning alter ego of a roguish Captain Jack Absolute.
Meanwhile her aunt, a self-professed model of virtue, Mrs. Malaprop, is forced to confront her own vulnerability at the hands of a wild and rebellious Irish baronet.
Youth battles age and wisdom eludes both in this mischievous account of human nature and its imperfections. In a world where pretence governs all, can truth and love win through?
The Rivals, R.B. Sheridan’s feisty and spirited celebration of the drama of everyday life, is one of theatre’s most enduring comedies.
