Sitting Room Productions presents: THE GAME’S A FOOT, TRY THE FISH (AND THE MAN WITH THE TWISTED HIP)
Award-winning comedian, Tom Taylor, sets out to tour the UK this autumn with the first and second episodes of his critically-acclaimed Charlie Montague Mysteries. These delightful one man plays are packed with nonstop laughs from start to finish and a revolving gallery of high society dames and eccentric waiters – all played by Taylor.
Two gloriously silly murder mysteries for anyone who ever wished Bertie Wooster was a detective.
“AN HOUR OF VERY SILLY AND VERY FUNNY COMEDY” – Broadway Baby
The Game’s a Foot, Try The Fish is the introduction to our hero, Charlie Montague. Inspired by the Hippodrome’s latest mystery play, rakish aristocrat Charlie takes out an advert offering his services as a consulting detective and, one breakfast later, finds himself on his first case. What follows sees the gloriously inept love child of Agatha Christie and PG Wodehouse determined to prevent a murder.
The chap dies.
“A GLORIOUSLY SILLY SOLO HOMAGE TO HERCULE POIROT AND LORD PETER WIMSEY” – The Stage
sees Charlie (not put off in the slightest by the ups and downs of his first case) accept an invitation to the opening of a new art exhibition where he is presented with the double-threat of murder and modern art.
He is equally baffled by both.
“THE LONGEST AND LOUDEST LAUGHS I’VE HAD THIS AUGUST… AN ASTOUNDINGLY FUNNY SHOW” – Fringe Guru
