No Naughty Bits by Steve Thompson

Steve Thompson's new play is a study of the nature of comedy, the operation of censorship, and the complex misunderstandings implicit in the Anglo-American relationship. and is also, quite simply, gloriously funny. A remarkable true story that turns the spotlight on our 'special relationship' with America and asks how much do we actually have in common?

'Comic bliss'

* Independent *

'Steve Thompson's play, as one would hope from a Dr Who writer, is bigger inside than out, cleverer than it seems.. One kind of comedy wrapped inside another, a bright fizz of sherbert with a sharp lemon coating'

* The Times *

'Thompson understands how comedy works... hilarious'
