Rumpus Theatre Company presents

The devilishly funny farce … The Comedy of Terrors!

by John Goodrum

When Jo Smith arrives for an audition with director Vyvian Jones, it turns out she’s actually been invited to the theatre by Vyvian's twin brother Beverley, who wants her to impersonate her own twin sister Fiona, to persuade Vyvian that Beverley hasn’t had a fling with Fiona … he has, but doesn't want Vyvian to tell his fiancée Cheryl! And when the real Fiona turns up, not to mention Vyvian (a member of the local Sons of Satan Association, who wants to use Jo for his first human sacrifice) and Beverley and Vyvian’s identical triplet policeman brother, the stage is well and truly set for a fast-moving madcap comedy of multiple mistaken identity.

“a farcical and hilarious couple of hours … fabulous!” (Bracknell News)

“If you haven’t seen it, do. If you have, see it again; it’s just as funny

and ingenious second time around. I was worn out with laughing by the

end … written under the influence of happy juice!” (Derbyshire Times)

“The Comedy of Terrors” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
