At the height of eighteenth century London, the truth is a rare commodity. Rumour, gossip and back-biting abound in Richard Sheridan's classic.
When the wealthy Sir Oliver returns to Britain to select which of his nephews is to become his heir, he is plunged into a dissolute world, where morality takes second place to double-crossing, intrigue and downright skulduggery. From the creators of the box office success Lady Windermere's Fan, comes an elegantly styled production of Sheridan's masterpiece, delighting in the lies, lust, deceit and scandal of the upper classes.
Fast paced, witty and chic, The School for Scandal is a wonderfully comic glimpse into a world of wealth, romance, and deception - where nothing is quite as it seems.
