The Rivals

by

Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Directed by: Grant Fairlie

27th - 31st January, 2015

Lydia Languish yearns for a romantic elopement rather than a more conventional marriage. Thus the wealthy Jack Absolute has wooed her in the guise of impecunious Ensign Beverley. Mrs Malaprop, Lydia's aunt and guardian, disapproves of the attachment, and has forbidden her niece to see this penniless suitor... A Sheridan masterpiece.
