Synopsis The Way of the World" is a comedy of elegance, class, manners and deception, set in a fashionable London society that really has money and sex at the heart of its concerns. Mirabell and Millamant love each other, but they endlessly deceive other people, and each other, in order to achieve that love.
A magnificent production! Penelope Keith headed a hugely talented Company. An enormously enjoyable evening was had by all. And yes, it looked a million dollars! - O. Horton

A glorious celebration of language, stunning costumes and a cruel, satirical play slickly produced and well acted. I laughed a lot too - the fops are hilarious! - N Guilfoyle
