DAVID Copperfield, one of Charles Dickens' best loved and most autobiographical stories, comes to the Cotswold Playhouse in a Bristol Old Vic Theatre School production on Saturday. All Dickens' marvellous creations are here: Mr Micawber, Uriah Heep, Mrs Peggotty, Murdstone, Steerforth and Betsey Trotwood. Weaving through the colourful maze of the storyline is David's hopeless infatuation with Emily, and eventual salvation in the arms of Agnes. Alastair Cording's stage adaptation concentrates on the essentials of the story while maintaining the colour, humour and drama of the book.
David Copperfield is at the Cotswold Playhouse, Parliament Street, Stroud on Saturday. Tickets are available from the Sub Rooms, Stroud, or by telephoning 01453 760960.
