SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER Blue Sky Theatre Comedy -- Note this is an archived listing for performances in the year 2020 -- Written By: Oliver Goldsmith Directed By: Dave Simms A dizzying delight of romantic entanglements and outrageous behaviour. Open Gardens SA and Blue Sky Theatre are presenting She Stoops to Conquer in gardens over four weekends this coming summer. Kate Hardcastle has a love problem: Her prospective fiancé is terribly shy. He can hardly get a sentence out around her, but he exudes confidence around her maid. So, what if she poses as a barmaid to get to know him? Her meddling step-mother, blusterous father, and rascally step-brother get drawn into the plot twists and turns in order to conceal her identity. Amidst this madcap mayhem, can Kate convince Charlie Marlow to love her for who she really is? Blue Sky Theatre will set Oliver Goldsmith’s warm-hearted 18th century romp in the giddy world of the roaring twenties. Join us for a picnic in four glorious gardens to enjoy a spirited feast of martinis, jazz and family mix-ups guaranteed to keep you laughing through the chaos. • Crozier Hill at Victor Harbor 10, 11 and 12 January 2020 • Stangate House in Aldgate 18 and 19 January • The Cedars at Hahndorf 24, 25 and 26 January • Wittunga Botanic Garden in Blackwood 31 January and 1 February ALLOCATED SEATING, so book early.
