Wokingham Youth Theatre presents

The Government Inspector

by Nikolai Gogol

Translated and adapted by Alistair Beaton

17-20 February at 7.45pm

Directed by Fiona Rogers

 

Wokingham Youth Theatre offers you the opportunity to see our cast of talented young performers in one of the most famous comedies in world theatre. Gogol’s masterpiece has lost none of its bite.

 

In a small town at the back of nowhere corruption is rife and the Mayor and his cronies have got it made. But when they learn they’re going to be subject to an undercover government inspection they panic. Mistaking a penniless nobody for the powerful official they swiftly fall victims to their own stupidity and greed. In this hilarious new translation award-winning satirist Alistair Beaton brings to life its dazzling blend of preposterous characters and all too real situations.

The Lady In The Van

by Alan Bennett

Mar 25 - Apr 3 at 7.45pm

This fascinating play, combining comedy and pathos, is based on Bennett's extraordinary 20-year relationship with Miss Shepherd who lived in a van, initially outside his house in Camden Town and eventually in his front garden until she died. Not to be missed!

A Doll's House

by Henrik Ibsen

April 29 - May 8 at 7.45pm

Directed by Hedda Bird 

 

A sensation when first written, Ibsen's play has remained one of the great classics of 19th Century theatre. Its central character, Nora, breaks out of her secure, loving yet repressive marriage and, in a highly dramatic denouement, strikes a blow for feminism.
