Director Marieke Audsley said today, “I'm thrilled to be working with Wiltshire Creative and the Octagon on this hilarious adaptation of P.G. Wodehouse's much loved classic novel, The Code of the Woosters. We have a really exciting cast to bring Bertie, Jeeves, their friends (and foes!) to life, and a wonderful creative team to create the fabulous world of Berkeley Mansions and Totleigh Towers. Both dedicated Wodehouse fans and anyone new to Jeeves and Wooster can look forward to a fantastically farcical and fun evening out!”
