Jeeves Intervenes
Adapted by Margaret Raether from the stories of P.G. Wodehouse
Matsqui Centennial Auditorium
The posh, high society London scene of the 1920s is thrown into chaos by hapless playboy, Bertie Wooster, and his old school chum, Eustace Bassington-Bassington.
The two hatch a brilliant plan to dupe their meddling relatives to save Bertie from an undesired marriage and Eustace from an unwanted job in India. But will the ever-faithful manservant, Jeeves, be able to rescue these bumbling fools from themselves?
A delightful romp full of deception and disguise, the play is a perfect celebration of the arrival of summer and an exciting conclusion to our 30(+2) season.

Jeeves Intervenes is a champagne cocktail of a show, as bright and engaging as a garden party in May
—Chicago Tribune
There is mistaken identity, ridiculously improbable circumstances and foolishness of the highest order... Think one-part early Noel Coward, plus one-part late Oscar Wilde.

Humor that is as wry and dry as James Bond's shaken martini

Comedy that's funny every way you look at it
—Third Coast Daily
Vivid wordplay and snappy, sugar-coated insults... Margaret Raether's droll adaptation is as dry as a well-made martini and equally potent
