Synopsis
Jeeves & Wooster in 'Perfect Nonsense'
The Goodale Brothers from P. G. Wodehouse
Published by Nick Hern Books
3 Male Female
An inventive, fast-paced comedy featuring P.G. Wodehouse's iconic double act ...
When a country house weekend takes a turn for the worse, Bertie Wooster is unwittingly called on to play matchmaker
His aim is to reconcile the affections of his host's drippy daughter Madeline Bassett with his newt-fancying acquaintance Gussie Fink-Nottle
If Bertie - ably assisted by the ever-dependable Jeeves - can't pull off the wedding of the season he'll be forced to abandon his cherished bachelor status and marry the ghastly girl himself!
Based on P.G. Wodehouse's delightfully bonkers stories - especially The Code of the Woosters, the Goodale Brothers' dramatisation premiered at the Duke of York's Theatre, West End, in November 2013, prior to a UK tour
NOTE: Written for a cast of M3, who play multiple roles, this adaptation will suit any theatre company or drama group looking for a comic play to perform (Rights available)
