Overview

This collection of plays all three duologues and one three-hander all on a strong theatrical theme, may be presented individually or in one programme as a complete evening's entertainment under the title Corpsing. Together they encapsulate Peter Barnes' consummate skill of contrasting opposites and simultanously combining "the absurdly tragic and the tragically absurd". The individual titles are: Acting Exercise, Humour Helps, Last Things, Waiting for a Bus.
