About this book

"From comic mastermind Jeffrey Hatcher comes a fresh take on Richard Brinsley Sheridan's 18th-century romp THE CRITIC, a whirlwind comedy about bad theatre, worse playwrights...and, worst of all, the critics. The meta-theatrical frenzy builds throughout, from wacky antics and quick changes to an operatic burlesque as the company jumps from role to role. Experience a madcap night of life in the theatre with this classic behind-the-scenes comedy."-- Publisher's description.
