THE PHILANTHROPIST

by Christopher Hampton
 
Directed by Catherine Aselford

Featuring Michael Crowley, Mary Egan, Peter J. Orvetti, Laia Rufaro, Carol Spring, and David Walsh

This brilliantly constructed, witty and sophisticated comedy of manners revolves around a couple of days in the life of a bachelor don who is on the point of getting married, and the consequences of a dinner party he gives which cause turmoil and recriminations in the lives of his guests. Reviewing the original production in the Sunday Times, Harold Hobson described it as ‘…a wonderful evening, intellectually stimulating, touchingly sympathetic and gloriously, gloriously funny.
