The Sparkling and Uproarious Comedy by Dion Boucicault, adapted by Richard Bean.
A production by our resident amateur theatre company
Dion Boucicault, the Irish genius of London theatre in the age of Dickens, wrote the brilliantly funny London Assurance in 1841 and thereby created, in Sir Harcourt and Lady Spanker, two of the great comic roles of the English stage.
This new version of the play, revised by Richard Bean, who wrote the hilarious “One Man, Two Guvnors”, was an outstanding success at the National Theatre in 2010.
A summer treat and the first live theatre performance at Stamford Arts Centre in over a year!
