Details

Set in 1935 in a small French village, The Baker's Wife explores the nature of marriage and the unpredictable excitement of the knight in shining armour. If bread represents life then the baker s new young wife represents danger to the people of this community. We discover stories told when you were a child can often backfire horribly in adult life. Based on La Femme du Boulanger by Marcel Pagnol and Jean Giono With a book by the writer of 'Fiddler on the Roof' and a breathtaking score by the composer of 'Wicked', Michael Strassen (Best Production - Off West End Awards 2011) directs this revised version of Stephen Schwartz's forgotten love story.
