“One way pendulum” by N.F. Simpson
One way pendulum was first produced in London in 1959. The plot defies description, featuring a choir of “speak-your-weight” machines, a reconstruction of the Old Bailey built in a domestic living-room and a cast of marginally believable characters living their preposterous but strangely familiar lives.
Simon Palmer directs this absurd comedy, which draws on a British tradition of logical improbability as exemplified by Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear and the Goons, and which came to influence later acts such as Monty Python and the Goodies.
