Bewilderness

Synopsis:
A comedy about two men down the back of a sofa. Holding an impromptu seance to kill time during a power cut, Hamish and Sean are flabbergasted when a voice, claiming to be the father they never met, calls to them from the back of the sofa. Putting natural scepticism aside, the two men slip between the cushions and disappear into a terrifying upholstered underworld....This epic comic odyssey of impossible tasks could be described as a fusion of Morecambe and Wise and Dante's Inferno. Whatever, it's unmissable!

Notes:
written And devised by Sean Foley, Hamish McColl And Josef Houben.

Synopsis:
Inspired by Siegfried and Roy, the German-born magicians who've been entertaining Las Vegas audiences for more than 30 years. However, whereas Siegfried and Roy have built their act around white Siberian tigers, the Right Size's show is, as the title suggests, built around ducks. In Ducktastic!, world famous illusionist Cornelius Ursula Sassoon who, after an accident with an emu, loses his license to perform in Las Vegas. He teams up with Roy de La Rue, a pet shop proprietor from Portsmouth, to form Sassoon and Roy and put on a new West End show.

Play What I Wrote, The

Synopsis:
You see, Hamish has written a play, an epic set in the French Revolution, called A Tight Squeeze for the Scarlet Pimple and he wants to see it mounted. Sean, on the other hand, wants them to continue with their double act, even though they haven't worked for two years. He believes that if they perform a tribute to Morecambe and Wise, Hamish's confidence will be restored and the double act will go on. But first, Sean needs to persuade a guest star to appear in the play what Hamish wrote. . .
