A Chorus of Disapproval

JUN 6 – 23, 2018
A Chorus of Disapproval

A Comedy by Alan Ayckbourn
Directed by Wendy Merk

A diffident widower attempts to escape loneliness by joining the local amateur light operatic society. By accident, rather than by design – in fact, by not saying no to anything, be it a request to obtain confidential information from his company or an offer of illicit sex – he advances from a small part to the lead. Parallels are skilfully drawn between The Beggar’s Opera and the day-to-day activities of the society which is performing it.

SUITABLE FOR ALL AGES

“A serious comic masterpiece: brilliantly constructed, ruthlessly observant, hilarious and hard as nails”
Sunday Times

“A magnificent comedy: symmetrically shaped, psychologically acute and painfully, heartbreakingly funny”
Michael Billington, The Guardian

“Humour, pathos and unnerving insight into human idiosyncrasy.”
Francis King, Sunday Telegraph
