Usually part of the Tonight at 8:30 collection of ten short plays originally performed in alternating groups over three evenings (there were no matinees – it was, after all, called Tonight at 8:30), Red Peppers is brisk and snappy, at least partly because of the deadlines imposed as the main characters, George (Jon Osbaldeston) and Lily Pepper (Jessica Martin) are performing in a variety show, and the theatre’s management pop in every so often, to tell them how long they have left before they...

Part comedy and part confessional, this production has many of the hallmarks of the best of single performer shows – a gripping and accessible storyline and the distinct voices, mannerisms and other personal characteristics of multiple characters, all brought to life in such a way that it is easy to forget there is only one person on stage. The proverbial fourth wall is demolished very early on in the show and is never reinstated.
