Quality Street
Northern Broadsides and New Vic Theatre present By J.M. Barrie | Directed by Laurie Sansom –About Quality Street
A REGENCY ROM COM FROM THE WRITER OF PETER PAN, THAT GAVE ITS NAME TO THE UK’S MOST LOVED CHOCOLATES!
Phoebe Throssel lives on Quality Street where she runs a school for unruly children. When her old flame Captain Valentine returns from fighting Napoleon, the look of disappointment on his face when he greets an older, less glamorous Phoebe spurs our determined heroine to action.
She becomes Miss Livvy, a flirtatious alter-ego who soon beguiles the clueless Captain. As their romance is rekindled, can she juggle both personas without causing a scandal?
Northern Broadsides revive their hit Regency comedy, stirring in a good helping of Yorkshire wit from the retired workers of the Halifax factory where Quality Street chocolates have been proudly made since 1936. Think Bridgerton meets Inside the Factory.
