Directed by Barney Hart Dyke & Owen T James

An irrepressible fraudster known only as the Maniac is brought into Police Headquarters just as the officers are preparing for a judicial review of the recent ‘accidental’ death of a suspect in custody. Outwitting his captors, the Maniac dupes them into performing a farcical recreation of the incident, exposing the absurd corruption and terrifying idiocy at the heart of the system.

This classic farce by Dario Fo and Franca Rame has been given an up to the minute reincarnation from award-winning writer Tom Basden. Eviscerating everyone from the Metropolitan Police to the metropolitan elite, this is a show that will leave audiences breathless!
