SPRING SHOW
First up this year was ''The Government Inspector" or "A Little Local Difficulty". By Nikolai Gogol, adapted by Philip Goulding. Directed by Guy Fairbank. Performance dates: Wednesday 17 - Saturday 20 April 2024 at 7.45pm.
A mayor and his officials are alarmed to hear rumours of the arrival of a government inspector, travelling ‘incognito’. Is it the penniless rake and his servant who are lodging in a local inn? Despite being unable to even pay their bill, this unlikely couple suddenly find themselves being treated like royalty by the sycophantic mayor and his cronies. They not only enjoy the finest food and wine available, but also the feverishly competitive adoration of the mayor's wife and daughter. When the truth is revealed the Mayor and his officials are publicly humiliated… This new version of Gogol's classic comedy about mistaken identity and small town corruption has been adapted by Philip Goulding and is set in a provincial British town in the 1860s.
