| Sheridan's immortal comedy of manners lampoons 18th Century London society with characteristic style, wit and ingenuity. Sir Peter Teazle chooses a simple country maid as his bride, only to see her transformed into the leader of a school for scandal which relishes nothing so much as tearing reputations to tatters. He plans to marry his favourite nephew, Joseph, to his lovely ward, Maria. But Joseph - a man of holy words but lewd intent - is wooing Lady Teazle. Besides, Maria is in love with Joseph's charming rogue brother, Charles. | |
