A man is taken to the fourth floor of a police station, accused of planting a terrorist bomb. A few hours later he is found dead on the pavement outside. The policemen involved have difficulty remembering the exact details of the event... The characters from this riotous romp, an original stage play by Dario Fo set in the '70's, stop polishing their rubber bullets only to be subjected to a humiliating ordeal at the hands of the 'Maniac'. A non-stop barrage of clichés, denim, magnum 45's and bad facial hair. Meanwhile, four storeys up, a suspect, whilst under interrogation, falls from a window. The police said it was an accident but someone thinks otherwise. This visually outstanding production has a superb original musical score, brilliant lighting effects, pyrotechnics and more gags than you can shake a stick at. This fresh new version, faithful to the clear-sighted insanity of Fo's original, was created for a Royal National Theatre mobile production in 1991.| 28 Feb 02 | Millfield Theatre Outer London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
