What The Butler Saw
Mon, 30 July 2012, 01:02 am***OPENS THIS WEEK*** BOOK YOUR TICKETS NOW, YOU'LL BE MAD IF YOU MISS IT!!!
The London Street Theatre Group and Mandurah Performing Arts Centre return together in a Community Partnership to present a modern comedy classic in Joe Orton’s "WHAT THE BUTLER SAW".
Directed by Brad Tudor
Welcome to the madhouse, as Joe Orton's legendary 1967 comedy runs riot at the Fishtrap Theatre. What the Butler Saw is an insanely funny, full-throttle tour de farce directed by Brad Tudor. One-liners and outrageous twists collide, as the characters lose the plot, their wits, and their clothes.
When psychoanalyst Dr Prentice instructs his new secretary to undress, he doesn't expect to be interrupted by his wife, her blackmailing lover, a government inspector and an inquisitive policeman. But hiding a naked woman is the least of his worries, as libidos run riot, identities are swapped, social decorum is buried, madness mocks morality and laughter reigns.
What the Butler Saw is the last, and arguably finest, work of one of Britain's most celebrated playwrights. You'd be mad to miss it.
