The Alchemist

The Sedgwick Theater Get Directions

What do you do when your boss goes on vacation...in the middle of a pandemic? With the master away, watch three servants play as they swindle a rogues’ gallery of ridiculous characters out of their cash and their dignity by offering pseudoscientific services that range from turning metal into gold to summoning fairies. Written for the reopening of the London theatres after the plague outbreak of 1610, The Alchemist is Ben Jonson’s chemistry lesson in comedy that will tickle your funny bone with one hand and pick your pocket with the other.
