You Don't Need to Know That
Gonzo Moose
Beresford Jones is having a bad day. He’s been arrested and no-one will tell him why. Now he must negotiate torture-mad policemen, over-zealous librarians and pop-singing lawyers to prove his innocence, avoid execution, win his freedom and the girl. Fast-paced comedy mixing paranoia, Kafkaesque nightmare and Ealing Comedy.

Russell Kane: Gaping Flaws
Avalon Promotions
World Premiere
2006 was a tub-thumping critical success. 2007 was a sell-out run, garnering an Elizabeth Dukedom of glimmering four and five star reviews. He’s back for a third annus. Strap in for some super speed sunderings, cod-sociology, and fizzy rants at the smug elites who try to pull our strings and tick our boxes.
