The Government Inspector

By Nikolai Gogol / Translated by Roger Cockrell
  • 19 February - 21 February 7pm
Jersey Arts Centre

Directed by Nicole Twinam

Gentlemen, I have invited you here to convey some extremely unpleasant news. We are to be visited by a government inspector…

The mayor and local officials of a small provincial town in Russia have got it made: corruption is rife and they have all the power. Yet, when they learn that an undercover government inspector is about to make a visit, they face a mad dash to cover their tracks…

One of the most famous comedies in world theatre, Gogol’s masterpiece has lost none of its bite. The Government Inspector remains a classic satire on the nature of human vanity full of outrageous characters, witty wordplay and sharp social commentary.

Be entertained by Jersey Arts Centre youtheatre’s latest production!
