Introduction
George is sure he is an accountant not an actor so why do these people expect him to "go on" tonight? Why won't somebody at least tell him what play it is? Why didn't he join a monastery?
This is a hilarious evocation of many an actor's nightmare with lovely pastiches of some very well known plays - and being Christopher Durang there is a bit of lapsed-Catholic self-scourging as well.
