Man of the Moment by Alan Ayckbourn
Television producer Jill Rillington is taping a documentary, which will reunite Vic Parks with Douglas Beechey. Seventeen years ago, Douglas inadvertently foiled Vic's last bank robbery, during which Vic shot a teller in the face. Vic, a callous boor, served his time and then exploited his celebrity status to become a wealthy television personality. Douglas married the maimed teller and hero and victim fell into shabby obscurity. Now, at Vic's luxurious Mediterranean villa, Jill's hopes for a fiery confrontation are fading because amiable Douglas shows no envy or bitterness and happy people make rotten telly material. Will Vic ever receive his just deserts?With almost sixty plays under his belt, Alan Ayckbourn is one of England's most prolific and widely produced living writers. He was knighted in 1997 for his contributions to the theater. This year, he was represented in New York by simultaneous productions of his plays House and Garden on both stages of the Manhattan Theater Club. He resides in the United Kingdom.
