| Description |
The corrupt Mayor is in a panic. News has reached him of an imminent investigation by a high-ranking government official who is travelling incognito – The Government Inspector! When a broke opportunist drifts into town and the Mayor mistakes him for the inspector, the hilarious unraveling begins. Roger Pulver’s bold adaptation of Gogol’s 1836 comic masterpiece was commissioned by Bell Shakespeare in 2006. The 19 characters are condensed into just two for one powerhouse night of comedy.
This outrageous farce about greed, corruption and opportunism is directed by comedy master and performer Da |
