1-Act Comedy (2F. 2M) Running time: 60 mins (Can be cut to 50 mins for festivals


Roy Brown is a man always on the lookout for an easy way to make a living. And modern art looks just the ticket... Seeing how much money there is to be made, and seeing how easy it looks to him, Roy reckons turning out a few pieces himself will be rather a doddle.

Needless to say, encouraged by his friend Jane (and ably hindered by his mate Rhys) things don't quite go to plan.

This is the second comedy to feature the eponymous Roy Brown. The first – 'Bringing Back the Bluestones' – achieved national notoriety when it was first performed!

Characters:
CORDELIA LANSBURY – 30 -50 Art gallery owner and performance artist
ROY BROWN – Carpenter, opportunist and wishful thinker
JANE – Roy's friend who's just a mate but we detect she might desire something more
RHYS – a drinking mate of Roy's and a useful sounding board for his ideas

'Roy Brown: Untitled' was first produced at the Grand Theatre, Swansea by Fluellen Theatre Company.The cast was as follows: Cordelia - Claire Novelli; Roy - James Scannell; Jane – Lauralee Nicole; Rhys – Huw Richards; Director: Peter Richards.

"There is much to like about this new work from the master of festival ready plays, the wordplay around Grayson Perry and his 'alt-er-e-go' Claire, amused me most, but there is glorious silliness in almost every minute of this fairly substantial one act offering."
