A farce
by Neil Simon

This riotously funny farce centres around the efforts of eight party guests to spare their unfortunate host, and themselves, from scandal. It opens with Ken and Chris who have found their host Charley, a prominent Government official, in his bedroom, too dazed to speak, with a bullet wound in his ear lobe! His wife, Vivian, and a domestic help are nowhere to be seen. Len and Claire arrive, themselves injured in a car crash, and are soon joined by Ernest and Cookie, Glenn and Cassie, each with their own problems. And then, following a second, accidental, gunshot that leaves Ken temporarily deaf, the police arrive!

To be performed at Los Arcos on 6th, 7th & 8th April 2012
