THE SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL, a comedy by Richard Brinsley Sheridan - main production

Directed by: Fred Gray
It is a joy to present this sparkling comedy for the first time in English on a Croatian stage. Dubrovnik – a city with its own long memory of diplomacy, secrecy, and appearances – is the perfect setting. And Fort Lovrjenac, towering above the sea, offers an open-air intimacy ideal for a play driven by whispers, glances, and careful performances. Here, the fans flutter freely – but what's revealed beneath them is where the drama truly lies.
