This play depicts the madness and mayhem of staging a comedy from behind the scenes: an ambitious director, his troupe of mediocre actors and the backstage ‘drama’ that develops during the final rehearsals and tour. They are putting together a silly comedy called ‘Nothing On’ – a single set farce in which lovers frolic, doors slam, clothes are tossed away and embarrassing high jinks ensue. In the end, at the disastrous final performance, as the characters make their final exits from ‘Nothing On’ they find themselves making entrances into the even worse nightmare going on backstage. The two plots can be kept separate no longer and merge into a single collective breakdown. Gaetano has had this play planned for Malvern for nearly two years!
