He wants to get married; and he doesn't want to get married - he doesn't
know what to do. But he has a friend who knows what's best for everyone.
Marriage is Gogol's farce about desire, matchmakers, Imperial Russian
speed dating and much else besides. "Howard Colyer's adaptation of
Gogol's intriguing, funny and slightly unsettling play brings out the
piece's absurdities. It's an entertaining version, with satisfyingly
pared-down and peppy dialogue." Time Out.
