1981-11 (GCP) See How They Run

This is a classic British farce by Philip King set in wartime Merton-cum-Middlewick.  It involves a cluster of clerics, mistaken identities and a German PoW

Brenda Hester produced.  Ian Walker (as a German pilot in an oversized uniform) and Alistair Codona (as an uncertain parson in a long scarf) made their debuts on stage. Nancy Shield videoed the play, and this was played at Elizabeth Birkby’s home.  Is this the first show to be videoed?

Elizabeth Birkby was apparently “pie-eyed”, and Tony Wood was seen in “doubtful” underwear!
