Tom Jones is a rip-roaring comedy set in the heart of the English countryside. It is based on Henry Fielding’s classic story, which is regarded as the first and one of the most influential English novels.
The play follows the hilarious adventures of Tom, a foundling and ward of a liberal Somerset squire. We journey with him through trials and tribulations as he seeks his fortune – and amorous entertainments along the way…
Fielding claimed that his purpose was to ‘explore human nature’ so generosity, hypocrisy, loyalty, jealousy, and integrity all play their parts – until finally wisdom, forgiveness and love win out!
