Eastbourne College presents The Dell Play: The Good Doctor

A combination of Neil Simon and Anton Chekhov, The Good Doctor, is charming, hilarious, sad and touching. It consists of a series of comic vignettes narrated by 'The Writer'. He presents the audience with a plethora of scenes: some are from his childhood, others are his family and friends, and still others are his own life experiences. In one sketch, a crafty seducer goes to work on a wedded woman, only to realise that the woman has been in command from the first overture. And let us not forget the classic tale of a man who offers to drown himself for three rubles. The audience meets a variety of characters, all of whom are immediately relatable and strikingly human. The humour is infectious and the fun unending.
