The Private Ear and The Public Eye

by Peter Shaffer

 

Performed for the one hour play festival at The London Theatre

 

The Private Ear is set in a musky London bedsit, where reclusive Bob, normally used to giving his full attention to his record collection, calls in a favour from Ted, his slick, confident friend, to help him treat his date, the beautiful but shy Doreen, to a slap up meal.

 

The Public Eye takes place in a swanky London accountancy office, where uptight Charles is confronted by Julian, an eccentric private detective hired by Charles to investigate his young wife’s suspected infidelity.

 

Bob expects help. Charles expects proof. But in this darkly comic double bill nothing is as it seems.
