Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Oliver Goldsmith's comedy was a milestone: yes, it's fast and funny, almost farcical at times, a great night out, and so on, but it's also a psychological masterpiece written at the time when English society began its stately progress towards its admirable class system.” —Sunday Times

“A bomproof comedy...Oliver Goldsmith's play is about the clash between town and country, between varying degrees of pretension.” —Robert Dawson Scott, The Times, 04.06.08

“Against Sean Crowley's elegant blank canvas of a set, which allows a home to be mistaken for an inn, Goldsmith's themes of class and snobbery unfold with delicious clarity. The performances are both ticklish and sophisticated - the actors step outside the action to address the audience directly - and yet played for traditional laughs and tremendous relish.” —Elisabeth Mahoney, Gaurdian, 01 May 2009
