Jeeves & Wooster Pack Up: West End’s Perfect Nonsense to Close Early Prior to U.K. Tour

Perfect Nonsense, the West End play following P.G. Wodehouse’s iconic comedy duo Jeeves and Wooster, will pack up earlier than expected. The comedy, which previously announced an extension through January 17, 2015, will now close at the Duke of York’s Theatre on September 20. As reported earlier, current stars John Gordon Sinclair and James Lance will embark i\on the U.K. tour, set to kick off on September 24 in Guildford.

Based on and adapted from the established literary works of Wodehouse, Perfect Nonsense brings to life the charmingly incompetent Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet Jeeves in the comedy by brothers Robert and David Goodale.

Perfect Nonsense, directed by Sean Foley, began performances on October 30, 2013. It went on to garner a 2014 Olivier Award for Best New Comedy.
