The Rivals at The Corn Barn, Collumpton, Sutton Barton, Devon

An al fresco farce for all the family!
When fashionable 18th century London society comes to take the waters in the spa-town of Bath, comic confusion, daring duels and romantic entanglements abound. At the centre of it all is heiress Lydia Languish, who is determined to elope with the penniless Ensign Beverly rather than marry the eligible Jack Absolute.
Come and sample the sparkling wit and whirlwind plot of The Rivals, a Restoration Comedy which has delighted audiences for over 250 years with its collection of comic characters, including the formidable Mrs Malaprop, a creation so famous for the way she mangles the English language that her name is now immortalised in the dictionary.
This brand new adaptation combines Richard Brinsley Sheridans masterpiece with Rain or Shines fast and furious comic flair.
