Synopsis

Tom Jones

Tom Jones $15.99

Ross Ericson from Henry Fielding

Published by Methuen

4 Male 4 Female

Tom Jones follows the adventures of a young man of illegitimate birth through a tale of love, deception and mistaken identity

This skillful stage adaptation offers a feast of human nature, served up in the plain and simple manner of the West Country with all the high French and Italian seasoning of sex and vice

Will he gain his darling Sophia's hand?

Will he escape the hangman's noose?

And will he ever learn to keep it in his trousers?

Henry Fielding's comic picaresque novel A History Of Tom Jones, a foundling caused a stir upon first publication in 1749

Often referred to as the first novel in the English language, this cunning new stage version tells the escapades and exploits of the infamous protagonist through an accessible and highly entertaining adaptation

REVIEWS

"The charms of this 'Tom Jones' are hard to resist" ~ Time Out

"Packed full of saucy wenches, indulged aristocrats and pompous hypocrites, Tom Jones is a highly entertaining romp played out with just the right amount of bawdy humour .... jolly, cheeky, deliciously smutty and a very good giggle" ~ The Stage
