The Recruiting Officer (Play)

Neil Fitzpatrick, Kurt Geyer, Philip Holder, Robert Menzies

1989 Melbourne Theatre Company Australia

 

The Recruiting Officer is a 1706 play by the Irish writer George Farquhar, which follows the social and sexual exploits of two officers, the womanising Plume and the cowardly Brazen, in the town of Shrewsbury (the town where Farquhar himself was posted in this capacity) to recruit soldiers.  The characters of the play are generally stock, in keeping with the genre of Restoration Comedy.

The Recruiting Officer opened at Drury Lane in 1706. It was an immediate hit and went on to become one of the most frequently performed plays of the 18th century.
