As the play Black Comedy opens the stage is in total darkness. Brindsley Miller an avant-garde artist and his finance Carol Melkett are decorating his flat with furniture from their camp and fussy neighbor Harriet Gorringe. The purpose is to impress Carol’s father the bombastic Colonel Melkett and a French millionaire who is interested in Brindsley’s work. Then a fuse blows and the building is plunged into darkness at this point the stage is finally lit.Brindsley’s foreboding that the whole evening is going to a disaster. “An A-one copper-bottomed, twenty-four-carat disaster!” is not far off the mark. With the unexpected arrival of Brindsley’s ex-girlfriend Clea and Harriet whose furniture was illicitly borrowed the whole evening moves from one chaotic moment to another. Fun prevails in all the confusion!
