| Description |
A searing, wry take on small town politics. The local council is lazy, inefficient and inept and horrified at the prospect of being exposed when they learn a government inspector is coming to town. But they mistake a down-at-heel playboy for the incoming official.
All nineteen charcters are played by two actors |
