Review
I know of no comedy for many years that has so much exhilarated an audience; that has answered so much the great end of comedy - making an audience merry. --From Boswell's Life of Johnson on Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer.
Fresh, spirited and often blissfully funny...The play is a marvel, a comedy almost entirely bereft of malice, but one that never seems twee, sentimental or bland. --Evening Standard on the 2012 National Theatre production.
She Stoops to Conquer is almost 240 years old, but Oliver Goldsmith's tightly plotted play seems wonderfully youthful in this fizzy production. --Daily Mail on the 2012 National Theatre production.
From the Back Cover
When the mischievous Tony Lumpkin directs two young gentlemen in need of accommodation to his parent's house, telling them that it is an inn, his practical joke leads to a night of misunderstanding, embarrassment and confusion for all concerned. First staged in 1773, 'She Stoops to Conquer'; or, 'The Mistakes of a Night' quickly established itself as one of the most popular English comedies.
Alistair Sim and Claire Bloom head the cast in a lively performance directed by Howard Sackler.
"I know of no comedy for many years that has so much exhilarated an audience, that has answered so much the great end of comedy – making an audience merry."
SAMUEL JOHNSON
