The Magistrate
National Theatre (Olivier)

John Lithgow takes the title role in this fast, furious, brilliantly plotted farce set in Victorian London.

Synopsis:
It is hard to believe Cis Farringdon is only 14, what with his rather more adult taste for gambling, port and women. That may be because he's not; his mother, Agatha, chopped five years from her age and his when she married the amiable Posket. But now Cis' godfather is on the way and she must warn her son of the deception. Unfortunately he's convinced his otherwise staid stepfather to embark on a night of carousing that will end up with a police raid and guests of the Hotel des Princes attempting to hide themselves from the law and each other.
