The play is set in a small radio studio in the bowels of Broadcasting House, at a not very secret location somewhere in London, England. It is Christmas 1942. The DG has decided that the long-suffering British public need their spirits lifted by a festive pantomime. Unfortunately, the local amateur dramatics group that was meant to deliver this treat fails to materialise and the hard-pressed producer and floor manager are forced to press some of the audience into an impromptu performance. With the added complication of an under-cover operation to prevent secret war plans falling into the wrong hands, mayhem ensues! 5 males/6 females/2 of any sex Running approx. 45 minutes
