A Tale of Two Cities

Details

Set amid the turmoil of the French revolution this epic play follows the fortunes of a band of dedicated rebels, fighting for the lives, their love and their liberty. The heroic struggle leaves a proud and historic legacy for generations to come. The original book is one of the few that most people know both the start and end of - from "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times .." to "It is a far far better thing that I do .." In celebration of the bicentenary of Charles Dickens, PNPF in association with Ovation present the new musical 'A Tale of Two Cities'. Based on the much loved Dickens story, this classic tale depicts one man's ultimate sacrifice for love.
