Description '…an evening of complicated shenanigans, with much running around Tony Rabbit's delightful circular set like a carousel at a country fair. The setting is Edwardian rather than the 1773 period of the text and the accents are pure Newzild, which adds humour, and also means we aren't expected to take it too seriously. There is a good running joke, probably suggested by the sawdust on the floor, concerning our attitude today to the French'.
