Notes:

devised in only four weeks by the cast and the director John Nicholson, with assistance from Andy Burden

Synopsis:

The production is based on the extraordinary life of Dr William Price (1800-1893), an eccentric figure renowned for his radical views embracing vegetarianism, nudity and free-love. He pioneered the practice of cremation, shocking wider Victorian society- cremation was illegal at the time. Big State Theatre use their comic imagination and multi-character style to bring this amazing and truly unique character back to life. The Firestarter features over 25 characters including a sheep, a parrot, a spectacularly incompetent vicar, rampant twins and the lovesick Smelly Gwennie- all performed by three stunningly versatile actors.

By Steven Canny and John Nicholson

Synopsis:

Legal Theatrical Disclaimer  Peepolykus (people-like-us)absolutely deny all allegations that they might be about to unleash a completely fictitious, untrue comedy about the poisoning of a Russian dissident in London. There is no way they are working on a fast-paced thriller of international espionage and global politics that contains any shocking revelations about events which are absolutely not true.
