London Assurance

Nikolai Foster directs the stylish, romantic comedy, London Assurance, by Irish-born playwright Dion Boucicault.

Lady Gay Spanker’s love for her husband, is brilliantly balanced with the demands she makes on him, and her dexterity in handling a modern marriage. Similarly, at 18 years old, Grace is an exceptionally intelligent and erudite young woman, who understands only too well that marriage equals money, nothing more. Over the course of the play she also discovers a capacity for love, and this dichotomy creates brilliant, challenging and entertaining drama.
