Prix public : 12,00 €

"The Recruiting Officer" by George Farquhar is a classic Restoration comedy that offers a humorous and satirical look at life in 18th-century England. Set in the town of Shrewsbury during the War of the Spanish Succession, the play follows the exploits of Captain Plume, a charming and roguish officer who is tasked with recruiting soldiers for the army. At the heart of the play is the rivalry between Captain Plume and Sergeant Kite, a wily recruiter who resorts to deceit and trickery to meet his recruitment quotas. As they compete for the affections of the local women and the allegiance of potential recruits, they find themselves embroiled in a series of hilarious misadventures and romantic entanglements.
