“The Rivals” at Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey

“The Rivals”
by Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Welcome to one of the world's greatest restoration comedies, an uproarious play that lampoons romantic infatuation and the ridiculous lengths that men and women will go to in the name of love. Featuring one of literature’s most memorable comic characters, Mrs. Malaprop, whose preposterous “malapropisms” skewer the English language in a most hilarious way. Add in a cast of conniving servants, disguised lovers and meddling parents, and the ensuing escapades guarantee belly laughs galore.
