Orange Tree Theatre  

Until July 23 – The False Servant by Pierre Marivaux, translated by Martin Crimp

When a man thinks he can cynically take a rich woman's money and then run off with an even more lucrative potential fiancée, he had best not tell the fiancée by mistake.

Le Chevalier, a woman disguised as the son of an aristocrat, embarks on a plan that will expose the dark heart of this male power-play.

This version by Martin Crimp – an addictively adult comedy - was acclaimed at its 2004 National Theatre premiere for its 'thrills, chills and belly laughs'.

Crimp's prolific international career began at the Orange Tree Theatre, including our recent hit revival of Dealing with Clair.

It is directed by Paul Miller and follows his acclaimed production of Marivaux's The Lottery of Love.
