Based on the Henry Fielding novel, this stage adaptation tells the story of young Tom Jones, foundling and ward of Squire Allworthy. Tom is deeply in love with Sophia and she with him, but the father has arranged for her to marry the Squire's sneaky nephew (and heir), young Blifil. The romance is discovered, Tom is banished and Sophia, with her maid, Honour, set out to find him. They are followed by Sophia's father, his sister, Squire Allworthy and Blifil. All find madcap adventures on the road to London and meet with many strange characters. The amusing and unexpected soution to their problems captures all the laugh-a-minute hilarity for which Tom Jones is famous. |
