The Real Inspector Hound, Tom Stoppard’s farce about a second-string theater critic, is just the kind of broad comedy at which Shakespeare & Company excels. Jonathan Croy directs a cast that includes Wolfe Coleman, Dana Harrison, David Joseph, Daniel Kurtz, Alexandra Lincoln, Josh Aaron McCabe, Meg O’Connor, Scott Renzoni, and Enrico Spada. Critic Peter Bergman raves about the “deft direction” by Jonathan Croy and says there’s “nothing this man doesn’t know about getting a laugh, and get them he does with a wonderful production of this odd play.”
“The Real Inspector Hound is truly an evening of comic anarchy,” wrote Larry Murray in Berkshire On Stage. “For all the literary illusions and allusions, there isn’t a better evening of entertainment you can have.”
