ISL's high school students present David Harrower’s version of Nikolai Gogol’s The Government Inspector.
When the locals in a small town in Russia learn that an undercover government inspector is coming for a surprise visit, the inhabitants spiral into a world of panic and greed. The Government Inspector is a comedy of errors that provides commentary on a society that is controlled by the few for their own good.
Anyone who is anyone in the town is desperate to impress, hide from or flirt with the visiting inspector. However, there is a potential sting in this tale as the visitor may not be who everyone assumes he is…
Witty, smart and wildly satirical, The Government Inspector exposes the corruption of a provincial town with biting hilarity.
