Situation Comedy - by Johnnie Mortimer & Brian Cooke
This cleverly written play is by two experienced sit com writers who bring all their insider knowledge to this very witty farce.
Two authors of television situation comedies are stuck for a new idea, when inadvertently, each man finds himself getting drunk with the other man's wife. Macho man Charles Summerskill winds up with a beautiful but hopelessly inept partner, who is so artless in the kitchen that she burns salad; whereas wimpy Arthur Grey finds himself with a prim and proper expert chef. Charles ends up with indigestion while Arthur eats well but is left frustrated. Eventually, work forces Charles and Arthur together again, but things then take a somewhat surreal turn, when art starts to reflect life in the strangest ways....
