This
hilarious play, awarded Best Comedy at the 1991 Olivier Awards, will have
audiences in stitches. Conservative minister Richard Willey plans to spend the
evening with Labour Party secretary Jane, but things go wrong - starting with
the discovery of a 'body'. Desperately trying to get out of a potentially
headline-making situation, Richard seeks help. However, with a conniving
waiter, a suspicious hotelier, an alert private detective, an angry wife, a
furious husband, a bungling secretary, an unconscious nurse and a dead body to
deal with, this is not the romantic evening Richard had planned. "A Ray Cooney
play guarantees a house full of laughter. This play is a delight; completely
crazy and highly entertaining" The Stage

Directed by Dominic Goodwin, whose last 1812 production, Oh Clarence! was
hugely popular.
