as I sat there enjoying it how much other DU’ers would enjoy the play as well.
It’s a British political satire/farce by Alistair Beaton, set in London as the PM prepares his keynote speech for the party congress. Thought it tweaks Blair’s nose, the elements of satire (and horror) apply even more to the worst of political and media manipulation we’ve seen in the US lately. At its heart it’s really more about commander cuckoobananas.
Here’s a review from a 2001 London production:
http://www.theatreguidelondon.co.uk/reviews/feelgood01.htmAt drinks with the cast and crew of this production afterwards –they’re a wonderful bunch- all agreed they would be willing to stage a US production if it could be arranged.
So…does anyone know how to go about this, how to put the right people in contact with each other? Does anyone know, or know someone who knows?
And if you don’t…have you seen a good play lately?
