The play consists of two parts. First half adapted from Christopher Durang's "The Actor's Nightmare". It is the story of every actor. It’s the story of every human being. Stage fear and fear of forgetting lines is the worst nightmare an actor can get. He feels like he has not rehearsed anything or has not known the play itself. It’s like memory loss.

Second part is taken from sketches from the Monty Python's flying circus. Sketches from Monty Python mostly showcases humorous accounts of normal life. These are the incidents, which can happen with anyone of us. Sometimes they are philosophical; sometimes they are real trivial. Is not it like how life is?

70 minutes of action packed comedy. It’s very difficult to make someone laugh, and this play is indeed successful in doing so.

All the actors have done full justice to their character. It’s about their life, and it really looks that they have indulged in the characters well.

Technically this play is amazing, especially after not so great show in Harvey. Sound and lights are almost perfect. No hiccups whatsoever.

Seeing that this group is not a full time theatre group, this show is a remarkable achievement.

Three cheers for everyone attached with the VODO.
