The Acting Company reinvigorates Charles Dickens’ “Great Expectations” with an effervescent stage adaptation brimming with unexpected hilarity and romantic heart. Akin to a bingeable dramedy carved with the beautiful prose that made Dickens so popular, Nikki Massoud’s take on this timeless novel is uproarious and thrilling. It’s filled with escaped prisoners, wealthy and terrifying eccentrics, decaying mansions, and a stunning, young heiress of ruthless intelligence. Audiences of all ages will fall for this surprisingly relatable story about a young man’s harrowing journey from working-class orphan to a life of privilege and power.
