The Way We Live Now

Wed 11 Sep 1991 - Sat 23 Nov 1991

Biting satire of the 1870s.

Acknowledged now as Trollope's masterpiece, THE WAY WE LIVE NOW is a biting satire of the 1870s when the power of wealth lay behind all relationships, whether social, sexual or financial.

Bogus railway companies, bourgeois marital deals, city scandals, gambling debts and rural gentrification combine to make this a potential 'Barchester Chronicles' meets 'Serious Money'.
