Review: The Miser, Garrick Theatre
Molière's The Miser started life as a five-act comedy. Fortunately for those catching the train home, Sean Foley and Phil Porter have rewritten it as a two-act, two and a half hour comedy that hilariously sends up every theatrical stereotype with a terrific selection of comic actors.
Sophie Adnitt, BritishTheatre.com, 13th March 2017Review: The Miser

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 14th November 2016Review: Jeeves and Wooster
