Great gags, a terrific cast . . . and a full frontal Paul Whitehouse!

Staged review

This comedy's too clever by half - but its biting one-liners hit home.

Calamity James review

The climactic pratfall was a bit of a letdown, but this was a cleverly constructed playlet, just 15 minutes long, with some sharp one-liners and visual gags.

Hapless review
