A Who’s Who of Flapland
By David Halliwell
16 – 30 April 2005
CAST
Ian Reddington
David MacCreedy
Matt Aston directs a re-working of this rarely performed piece by David Halliwell, whose other work includes Little Malcolm and his struggle Against the Eunuchs.
Set in a self-service café, this bizarre black comedy begins with recollections of a swindle involving 2000 boxes of corned beef and a mystery con artist. A series of false identities and improvised aliases build to an increasingly absurd level before one of the two men is caught out. A double cross of the highest order, A Who’s Who of Flapland will keep audiences guessing as to Who’s who, what’s what and why.
Confused? You will be…
