Outdoor performance of The Rivals in Malvern’s Priory Park

[ad_1] A riotous 250-year-old comedy will be performed in Malvern's Priory Park.

Sheridan's classic The Rivals will be staged by outdoor theatre company Rain or Shine on Sunday, August 31.

The new adaptation of the comedy of manners is set to offer a mix of 'wit, romance, and comic confusion'.

Jonathan Legg, artistic director of Rain or Shine, said: "It’s the 250th anniversary of the play’s first production in 1775, a remarkable milestone, so it was the perfect choice for this year’s outdoor tour."

Set in Bath where fashionable London society have come to take the waters, the play includes a host of amusing characters, including the infamous Mrs Malaprop immortalised in the dictionary for mangling the English language.

The play starts at 4pm with gates opening at 3pm for picnics. In the event of rain, the performance will be moved to the Coach House Theatre.

Tickets available form the Rain or Shine website.
