It’s the Swinging Sixties in London’s West End, but Kath and her elderly father, Kemp, live in a house on the outskirts of a rubbish dump. Their drab existence is interrupted by the arrival of a new lodger, the handsome and enigmatic Mr Sloane. Provocative and sexually ambiguous, Sloane soon has both Kath and her brother Ed competing for his favors. Entertaining Mr Sloane is a story of people desperately searching for love, weaving a tangle of sex, deceit and violence in its place. The first major production by the taboo-breaking British playwright Joe Orton, Sloane premiered in London in 1964. It won the 1982 Drama Desk Award for Best Revival, and the Lucille Lortel Award for Best Revival in 1996. Orton died in 1967.
Entertaining Mr Sloane is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.
