Bang, Bang, Beirut by Ray Cooney & Tony Hilton

This is another Ray Cooney British farce and was directed by Gwen Clarke.  It played on Thursday 28 August, Friday 29 August and Saturday 30 August at 8pm (1980).  Its alternative title is Stand by your Bedouin.

An outrageously funny farce set in the lobby and courtyard of a small hotel in the Middle East, where a group of British undercover agents (in a variety of unlikely disguises) are trying to weather a local military coup, while devising a plan to smuggle a young native prince out of danger.  The bungling spies arouse the suspicions of the real military and we are off on a mad whirl of double-takes, sliding panels, missing bodies and mistaken identities.
