You can perform this play very successfully with as few as five actors by doubling some parts, though there are nine roles to fill - inspector Drake, Sergeant Plod, Jack, the Maid, Miss Duck, two aliens (Iei and Maki) a female robot called Luni and The High Priestess of Zircon.
THE PLOT The professor's dead body is found floating in the study, his daughter has vanished, and everything points to the mysterious time machine. Can Drake, ably hampered by Sergeant Plod, solve the crime of the century? By a freak of science, our heroes are hurtled into the year 2950, and onto the deck of an alien spaceship. Plod becomes momentarily super intelligent, and tries to make love to a robot, while Drake uncovers a fiendish plot to take over the world and falls into the groping hands of the sex-starved High Priestess of Zircon. Fasten your seatbelts for a comedy that's way ahead of its time. Some of the more unusual sound effects used in this play are available for free. Just email [email protected] |
