Trelawny of the Wells

Author An Original Comedietta by Arthur Wing Pinero (1898) with some most respectful additions and ornamentation by Patrick Marber (2013)

Overview

15 February 2013 - 13 April 2013

Rose Trelawny is the brightest star in the firmament of the Wells, the theatre company that raised her from birth. But she's prepared to give it all up for the love of her stage door suitor, aristocratic Arthur. His family are less convinced of her charms, however, and her joyful challenge to their dreary, snobby existence shocks them to their core.

Trelawny of the Wells is Pinero's love letter to the theatre. Joe Wright (Anna Karenina, Atonement, Pride and Prejudice) is one of our most exciting and visual film directors. This production is a celebration of the enchantment, the vivaciousness, the melodrama, the music and the irrepressible joy of the Victorian stage.

This production is supported by The Stuart and Hilary Williams Charitable Foundation

Run time: 2 hours and 20 mins including an interval
