Description
The classic Victorian play based on the classic Victorian novel. Staying faithful to Dickens' original, actor, playwright and theatre manager Harry Simms' 1875 adaptation is a marvelous example of Victorian theatre, with all it heighten emotion and raw melodrama. Original published as an acting edition in Dicks' Standard Plays, the drama was widely produced and popular for its time. Focusing on the Squeers story line, Simms brings spectacularly to life these now iconic characters.
