Come on, Jeeves
Written by P.G. Wodehouse and Guy Bolton
Directed and Produced by Pamela and Graeme Horner
2 – 7 June 2008
Nobody as national as the character of Jeeves, the most superb of “gentlemen’s gentlemen”, could fail to make a hit the first time he appeared in dramatized form. As butler and bookie’s clerk to an impoverished nobleman who practiscs turf accountancy the imperturbable Jeeves is able, in his own resourceful way, to rescue his lord from one scrape after another and finally, with brilliant ease, to retrieve the family fortune.
