CandyKing Productions Presents CANDIDA

For the first time in over a decade, Bernard Shaw's CANDIDA is presented in London by CandyKing Theatre at the Greenwich Playhouse.

Unseen in London for many years, this brilliantly comic piece presents the story of Candida, a woman whose staid life is transformed when she is wooed by the younger, enigmatic poet Marchbanks. Presented with the choice between her clergyman husband and her new admirer, she is forced to question her own desires, beliefs and feelings as she wields the power in this emotional ménage a trois.

CandyKing's production sees the play set in the 1940s, in an homage to the British humour of the popular Ealing comedies, updating and reframing the action for a truly individual interpretation of this classic British masterpiece.
