How's the world treating you?

Mrs More dreams of her son Frank becoming headmaster at a top public school. The world, however, seems to have other ideas. If he is ever to realise his mother's ambitions, Frank must overcome a rogue washing machine, a pair of missing trousers and a trio of lusty middle-aged women...

Roger Milner's surreal comedy follows one man's efforts to realise his destiny, whatever the world throws at him. Channelling the spirit of Monty Python and The Goons, Milner's engaging and witty play is laugh-out-loud funny and surprisingly touching.

Last seen in London in 1966, the original West End production transferred to Broadway and provided Patricia Routledge with a breakout role.
