4.0 out of 5 stars
A highly politically charged play,
By A Customer
This review is from: Comedians (Paperback)
Although the reader may pick up this play expecting a comedy, the various scattered jokes do little to hide the political undercurrent of the story. Set in mid 1980's England we see a few hours in the lives of several up and coming comedians, most of whom see comedy as the only way out of the depressing lives they lead. One of the joys of reading this play is seeing Griffith's own political preference coming through, and although the play finishes on a rather abstract, some say surreal, note the Griffiths general meaning is not hard to understand. Although the jokes are "classics" (read - 80's and outdated), each of the characters is well crafted and have very complex, sometimes subtle, relationships with each other.
