Where There’s a Will
A classic by the master of the French farce. Angele – is the wealthy widow of a philanderer and she’s learned that no man can be trusted. Married for the second time, she vows to keep her new husband on a tight leash. But just as she has him where she wants him, things are complicated by the arrival of her husband’s close friend who is determined to pursue her for himself. Clever, uproariously funny and in the true spirit of classic French farce, Where There’s A Will takes a crafty peek at the game of
infidelity and marriage.
This production marks the second collaboration between Director Peter Hall and ETT following their
triumphant Uncle Vanya earlier this year. Peter Hall is one of Britain’s most distinguished directors of plays, films and operas. He founded the Royal Shakespeare Company and was subsequently Director of the Royal National Theatre. English Touring Theatre presents potent, vivid and vital productions of
new and classic plays. A powerhouse of touring theatre, ETT works with a rich and varied mix of the country’s leading directors, actors and artists to stage thrilling and ambitious theatre that is vigorous, popular and, above all, entertaining.
