Nearby She Stoops to Conquer

Theatre's version of a rom com, She Stoops to Conquer is a comedy about mistaken identity, love and rebelling against class expectations. Hardcastle has high expectations for his beloved daughter, Kate, and is hoping to acquaint her with his friend's son for a future marriage proposal. However, unfortunately for him he stumbles across Lumpkin who tricks him into believing the innkeeper, Marlow is in fact his hopeful son-in-law. This light hearted play by Oliver Goldsmith is a humorous showcase of a dysfunctional family and how chaos can be caused by a slight rebellion and unexpected love. Coronation Street actress Katherine Kelly takes the lead role, her first since leaving the popular soap - it's quite a change for the star who swaps her gold jewellery and animal print for a corset in this 18th century comedy. If you can't make it to the theatre, She Stoops to Conquer will be broadcast to select cinemas across the UK and around the world on 29th March 2012 as part of National Theatre Live.About National Theatre: Olivier Theatre
