2009 Cox and Box
Cox and Box
This season also sees the welcome return of Sullivan's delightful comedy Cox and Box in a brand new performing edition which includes music rarely performed. Now we are in a seedy boarding house in Bloomsbury. An unscrupulous landlord rents the same room to two unknowing tenants - one who works during the day and the other at night. But an unexpected holiday occurs... This is a classic double bill in the great Savoy tradition.
