What’s it all about?

Patience follows two rival poets—Reginald Bunthorne (who’s pretending to be deep and mysterious) and Archibald Grosvenor (who actually is perfect, and utterly cursed by it). A group of lovesick maidens have ditched their soldier boyfriends in pursuit of more aesthetic ways

​

At the centre of the chaos is Patience, a kind-hearted dairymaid who’s baffled by all this fuss over love and poetry. But when both poets fall for her, things get complicated... and hilarious.

​

Expect melodrama, mistaken identities, and some of the cleverest lyrics in British theatre—all set to Sullivan’s sparkling score.
