The brand new production will premiere at the Marylebone Theatre from 3 May.

What is The Government Inspector about?

This hilarious new adaptation sets the action in a small parochial town in late 19^th century Britain, where the corrupt local officials mistake an over-privileged, vainglorious liar, who just happens to be passing through the town, for a high-ranking government inspector. Desperate to cover up their crimes and escape censure, the town’s Governor and his cronies pull out all the stops to try and bribe this dishonest buffoon with money, wine and women.
