CORONAVIRUS: All UK venues closed on 16th March 2020 but restrictions were lifted on 19th July 2021 with venues free to run shows to full capacity audiences after that though there are still issues with company members being forced to self-isolate on being 'pinged'. In September it is possible that a COVID vaccination certificate (or exemption) may be mandated for entry. Please note that iUKTDb archive listings between March 2020 and July 2021 may not be accurate as we did not receive details of all rescheduled and cancelled shows.

When word gets out that Duff is going to top himself, a host of ne'er-do-wells crawl out of the woodwork, each wanting to claim his grand gesture for their ?noble cause'. Let's face it, why waste a death? But which cause shall it be... love, politics, religion, or the rising price of fish? Will the disillusioned Duff go through with it? Will he really top himself for a dubious cause? Is he worth it? Watch and see... the suspense will kill you, if you don't die laughing first. World PremierePerformers Michael Hugo, Hester Arden, Angela Bain, Paul Barnhill, Howard Chadwick, Sophia Hatfield, Alan McMahon, Dyfrig Morris, Rob Pickavance, Samantha Robinson, Claire Storey.
