Our American Cousin

Our American Cousin

Tom Taylor

Step into a whirlwind of Victorian farce as Tom Taylor's *Our American Cousin* introduces Asa Trenchard, a boorish yet honest American, to the stuffy drawing rooms of his aristocratic English relatives.

Expect a riotous parade of stock characters, mistaken identities, and the kind of dramatic entrances and exits that define classic 19th-century comedy, all culminating in a delightfully chaotic rescue of fortunes and hearts.
