A Bunch of Amateurs by Ian Hislop and Nick Newman Directed by Anthony Kemp

Fading Hollywood actor Jefferson Steele arrives in England to play King Lear in Stratford. Unfortunately, it is Stratford in a sleepy Suffolk Village and the home of the Stratford Players - a somewhat struggling amateur dramatic group who are trying to save their theatre from developers. A hilarious comedy co written by Ian Hislop from Private Eye and co writer of Spitting Image and Nick Newman. This is a relatively new comedy having only made it's debut in 2014 and having also been made into a film.
