Four Plays for Coarse Actors by Michael Green

Four Plays for Coarse Actors by Michael Green

Hilariously, everything which can go wrong in a production does so. I Fornicazione is a grim tale of operatic adultery, poison and mayhem. Streuth is the crime story Agatha Christie would never have dared to write. A Collier's Tuesday Tea combines the kitchen with the coal mine with an irreverent glance at D.H. Lawrence. All's Well that Ends As You Like It pushes the genius of the bard to its limits while filching lines from most of his plays. In all, cues are missed, effects fail and props are lost and confusion reigns, but the coarse actors struggle on.
