Notes: double bill written by Brian Parks and Guy Masterson

Synopsis: Did you know that the Welsh got to America and colonised Alabama long before Christopher Columbus was even a twinkle in the eye? Or that within 50 years of the arrival of the Mayflower, around 98% of the indigenous population of the US had been killed off by the arrival of guns, smallpox and syphilis? More an entertaining lecture - without any visuals, alas - than a fully fledged theatre show, Guy Masterson's slightly alternative history of America runs from the 11th century through to the declaration of independence that offered liberty and the pursuit of happiness to all Americans - except the slaves. Masterson's monologue is the first half of this double bill exploring the special relationship between the UK and the US. The title of the show says it all, although it may be the wide-eyed American businessman in the second part of the bill, written by Brian Parks, who is being sold a pup. Parks's script is a neat little satire of these isles delivered by an American abroad whose entire knowledge of the country seems to come from Hollywood movies and TV specials on Dickens and Shakespeare. There are some nice observations on the British way of life - taxis are described as hearses for dwarves - and our cultural influence on the US: the language and the best way to shoot Indians.

Notes: written with Ross Gurney-Randall and Andrew Bailey

Synopsis: Powermonger, paladin or pawn, Hermann Goering was the highest ranking Nazi at the Nuremberg Trials and he told it like it was, citing "truth and honour" as his guide. His defence was astounding, logically brilliant and morally indefensible.
