Molière’s farcical, tragic, anarchic 17th century original is relocated to modern day Soho... swank new hotels and festering old clip joints, crackheads in alleys and cokeheads in clubs. e destitute, the delirious, the broken and the brazen, the hustlers and hoorays, the media movers and merciless whores - all packed in to one seething square mile.
Contains strong language and adult humour.Contains strong language and adult humour.

REVIEW 2011 / 2012
We Happy Fewby Imogen Stubbs
“The play tells of an amateur group of women from all social “The play tells of an amateur group of women from all social classes who took Shakespeare’s plays across the length and breadth of the UK during World War II... And eventually triumphed over all the odds. Which is exactly what this courageous production achieved last week. They took Stubbs’ uneven and patchy text and turned out a riveting, moving and thoroughly convincing performance.”

Fewer Emergenciesby Martin Crimp
“...the University of Cumbria’s Drama Department has never “...the University of Cumbria’s Drama Department has never been afraid of tackling unusual or challenging work over the years… And last week, the current Final Year Drama students lived up to the University’s tradition of presenting lively, progressive theatre with the utmost polish and panache”

REVIEW 2011 / 2012
Goethe’s Faust Part IITranslated and adapted by John Clifford
“A Devil of a good show... The Drama Department at the University of Cumbria’s Lancaster’s campus still flourishes... In the nine years I’ve been here, we have consistently enjoyed a well-executed, seemingly never-ending diet of plays old and new, familiar and the less so. ”
Michael Nunn (March 2011) The Visitor
Closerby Patrick Marber
“There’s comedy aplenty here, and not a little pathos in “There’s comedy aplenty here, and not a little pathos in the real tenderness and affection between the individuals... This production by final-year Drama students at the University of Cumbria beautifully highlights and spellbinds us with the highs and lows, thrills and squabbles of the emotional switchbacks... We were both so much taken with this excellent,
moving production that we have already booked to see it moving production that we have already booked to see it again. What better recommendation could there be?”
