'A fairy-tale for adults... beautiful funny and touching.'
Daily Telegraph
‘It is so richly conceived, such a pleasure in every detail that I'd love to see it all over again.' Observer
'The performances are uniformly excellent...Marianne Elliott's direction has a clarity not short of visionary.' Evening Standard
The feisty but lowly Helena falls in love with Bertram, a haughty count. To gain his hand she is set a string of impossible tasks. Even if accomplished, they can hardly guarantee his love. He refuses to bed her and yet says he'll only be hers if she bears his child; and he lusts after another. Nevertheless, our heroine, whether wisely or no, refuses to give him up.
Set against a background of sexism, snobbery and a battle between the generations, Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well turns fairytale logic on its head. A wondrous, bittersweet story.
