Two Lines in Mason Square

Available for over a year

Michael’s sold out live show is approaching but Roberta’s secret plans for a tour have backfired. The comedy promoters announced the dates without telling her and now Michael’s bosses are furious. The company is also facing a takeover by a corporate sleaze ball. On the plus side, Michael is cast in a big Netflix period drama. It’s only two lines but he gets to sport a significant moustache and work with stars like Blake Brooks (Mathew Horne). With the spotlight on him, Michael is asked to do a ludicrous social media challenge for charity, making him question whether he is suited to a life of frivolousness and insincerity. As the stress of the live show churns Michael’s stomach, Blake Brooks goes all ‘ghost of Christmas past, present and future’ diverting him from Roberta’s grand plan for comedy superstardom. Will Michael succumb to office life forever or will he see that going on a live tour in 2020 is the best way to end the series? Performers: Michael Spicer with Ellie Taylor, Joanna Neary, Greig Johnson, Jason Forbes, Alison Ward, Peter Curran and Mathew Horne.
