Last Autumn we had great success with

"Robert Gillespie’s well-oiled production carries off the Wildean, absurdist comedy beautifully. Impressive performances abound, particularly from Sioned Jones as Dorbeval’s not-quite-dutiful wife, and Roger Ringrose as the boorish, status obsessed oaf." - Time Out

"Like Noël Coward, Scribe hides a message under gift-wrapped froth. Robert Gillespie's production is suitably stylish...Max Digby plays Poligni, quite rightly, as a consummate ditherer, and there is sprightly support from Oliver Chopping as an open-hearted artist and Fliss Walton as the moderately merry widow." - The Guardian

"What is particularly impressive, and consistently fascinating, is its blend of the standard confections of romantic comedy rivalries, confusions, misunderstandings and concealments, with an utterly unsentimental acknowledgement that wealth can be at least as much of a driving force, and at least as fulfilling a goal, as love." - The Financial Times

"Curtis admits that this adaptation attempts to retain the spirit of the piece rather than a surgical translation and coupled with tight direction from Robert Gillespie and spirited performances this work, from the most prolific playwright in history, proves a worthy showpiece from an often overlooked author." - The Stage
