This classic play is aimed at the student, teacher, lecturer and theater lover alike, uses professional actors and directors at London's award-winning Greenwich Theater. With its themes of deceit, pride, love, gossip and capriciousness, The School for Scandal is one of the most enduring of all theater classics by Richard Brinsley Sheridan. Showcasing Sheridan's mastery of farce, witty dialogue and delight in satirizing upper-class pretension and affectation; above all, it shows how appearances can be deceptive, and provides much else in terms of revelation and enjoyment along the way. Often hailed as the best comedy of manners in English, The School for Scandal has been a crowd-pleaser for centuries.
