CAUGHT BY THE TAIL (PREVIEW)
Pentameters Theatre

DIGNITY, brides and trousers can all be lost in the blink of eye, as young philanderer Frenand discovers to his discomfort in George Feydeau’s Caught by the Tail.
Director Michael Friend brings the French playwright’s riotous Belle Epoque farce – about a successful Parisian cabaret singer dreaming of marriage to a man dreaming of someone else – to the Hampstead-based theatre next week.
The last time the play was staged in London it featured a young Richard Briers in the lead, at the Prince of Wales Theatre in 1969.
It’s opportune timing too for Pentameters: the famous fringe venue is celebrating its 40th birthday this month. That’s four decades of entertaining the art-lovers of London, a claim which few, if any, pub theatres in the capital can claim to match.
From April 8 – 20
