In addition to this play, a musical prelude is included at the start of the show featuring songs from the company’s past 30 years performed by their original singers.
TheTwo drama critics, Moon and Birdboot, take their seats to watch the performance of a new detective play, a parody of the conventional stage thriller. However, the private lives of the critics become inextricably mixed with those of the play’s characters. They become involved in the action causing a series of events that parallel the play they are watching. As the story progresses, they find themselves becoming part of the “play within a play” and the laughs get stronger. This is a pure melodrama with some very strange twists.
