Devon Williamson

Duration: 110 mins approx

Devon Williamson | Comedy | Full-length | 2m, 3f

Short synopsis

Barbara's husband is missing on the family farm. When Jack finally returns he is a nervous wreck and will not leave the house and is convinced that he is Hiroo Onoda - a Japanese soldier holding out on an island after World War Two. Barbara's husband is nuts. The only people she can trust with this information is the new vet and the village idiot. How will they restore Jack's mind without the help of the medical profession... or common sense?

Barbara's husband is missing on the family farm. Jack, your stereotypical farmer, suffers a bump to the head, causing him to, as the play's name suggests, go a tad nutty. The havoc this creates leads to many an unexpected event and awkward moment.

On his return he is a nervous wreck and will not leave the house... he is suffering from 'agriphobia' (the fear of agriculture), and is convinced that he is Hiroo Onoda - a Japanese soldier holding out on an island after World War Two.

Barbara's husband is, well... nuts. The only people she can trust with this information is the new vet and the village idiot. How will they restore Jack's mind without the help of the medical profession... or common sense?

Frequently asked questions

Can we try before we buy?

Of course! All our plays and pantomimes have a free Preview Script available for download as an A4 pdf file that contains 60-75% of the full script. If you like what you read then you can buy an inexpensive e-script of the entire play (typically less than half the cost of a traditional printed script) which is licensed to you for your personal use. Purchasing a script copying licence allows you to make just enough copies to support rehearsals and performances.

All our musicals are included in our perusal service. Through this, representatives of producing organisations can request a USB Stick of perusal material  which comprise the script/libretto and piano/vocal score as PDF files; a Cast (or Studio) Recording as MP3 files and (where available) an MP4 file video of either the premiere production or of a subsequent production.

Some titles have the facility to read the entire script online on our website.

Do we need a Licence To Perform?

The simple answer is, yes.

Under the international laws of copyright, you must be in possession of a valid, unexpired licence before performing any piece of theatre unless the owner or managers of the copyright has waived their rights.

Why do you insist on providing a formal royalties quotation?

When you request a quotation, it is logged in our system, it forms part of an orderly queue and protects your place in that queue should multiple licensing requests occur for the same show.
