Ayckbourn examines the current obsession with celebrity for its own sake and chillingly, but hilariously, demonstrates how celebrities can be destroyed as quickly as they can be made

Charlie Conrad is a celebrity. And his talent is ...?

He hasn't got one - the nation took him to their hearts for very publicly being unable to do anything competently

On a fateful day Charlie has an encounter with Marsha, a children's entertainer otherwise known as Mr Chortles, and his marriage and his career go into freefall ...

"A coruscatingly acid and funny play" ~ The Times
