Jeeves Takes Charge at Theatre Royal Bath

One man show Jeeves Takes Charge, by P.G. Wodehouse, is to play Theatre Royal Bath this Christmas.

Two of the best-loved characters in comic literary history, P.G. Wodehouse’s Jeeves and Wooster, are brought hilariously to life in this heart-warming show which has been seen all over the world. Adapted for the stage by Edward Duke and Hugh Wooldridge, directed by Hugh Wooldridge and starring Sam Harrison. Performances begin on Friday 6 December and continue to Saturday 4 January.

Olivier Award winner, originally brought to the West End by Cameron Mackintosh and Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jeeves Takes Charge sees the impeccably brilliant butler keeping himself in employment by ensuring his amiably goofy young master remains unmarried, with laugh-out-loud results.

West End, Chichester and RSC favourite Sam Harrison plays all twenty-two much-loved characters – Jeeves, Wooster, Florence Craye, Gussie Fink-Nottle, Bingo Little, Uncle Willoughby, Aunt Dahlia, and many more – in a tour de force performance, transporting you back to an age where work is unthinkable and keeping in with your relatives is of paramount importance.

Sam Harrison will play all 22 characters in the show, directed by Hugh Wooldridge. The creative team includes Tim Shortall (Set and Costume Designer), Tim Mitchell (Lighting Designer),  Paul Groothuis (Sound Designer) and Caite Hevner (Video Designer).
