A good critic is a dead critic. The two critics Moon and Birdboot aren’t dead and so share their thoughts with the audience as an increasingly absurd murder mystery unfolds in the sitting room of Muldoon Manor. Will they be able to figure out who indeed is the Real Inspector Hound? Will you? Following this short play, we move to The Bald Soprano, another short play, where baldness isn’t particularly relevant. The Smiths are English, perhaps too English. They are visited by the Martins who are also English, and they together drink English water and tell English stories. The Frenchman who wrote this play mocks them, and if you’re lucky, he’ll mock you too. At this point you might ask “What do these plays have to do with a popular cowboy ice-cream with bubblegum for a nose?” Nothing.
