| Synopsis: | Douglas Fulthorpe presents his penetrating view of life as seen from the gutter, in a madcap whirl of chills and thrills. Visit the elusive county of Wessex for an eerie and unforgettable lesson in hygiene in Afternoon Tea, then jet to the west coast of America for Orange Gin with Lieutenant Broccoli, a shabby, unconventional sleuth with an unusual taste in cigars. Finally return to Wessex, and the village of Little Slaughter, where, in Count Your Chickens, a sinister nephew performs his own brand of cosmetic surgery, under the seemingly unsuspecting gaze of his devoted Aunt Millie. There are 32 separate parts, plus roughly 9 soldiers. Many of these parts are small and very brief. By playing multiple parts the cast list can easily be cut to 7., that is 4 men and 3 women. Another 4 men or women are needed to make up the 9 soldiers required for Sketch 7; Straighten Up. | |||||
