Synopsis
Charles Pooter of Upper Holloway, a middle-class clerk with social aspirations far beyond his status, has decided the world deserves to hear his diary. He has one night, a troupe of actors and an empty stage to impart the woes of his humdrum existence to anyone who will listen.
Adapted by Hugh Osborne from the Victorian comedy of manners, Diary of a Nobody features a small cast uproariously recreating the trials and tribulations of Pooter’s daily grind in Victorian London.
Premiered at Royal & Derngate Theatre, Northampton, this highly energetic adaptation is ideal for amateur theatre companies wanting to stage a freewheeling version of a classic comic novel.

About the Author
George and Weedon Grossmith were brothers, best remembered for their 1892 comic novel, The Diary of a Nobody, which they co-authored, with illustrations by Weedon. George Grossmith was also famous as a music hall performer (he created a series of memorable characters in the comic operas of Gilbert and Sullivan), and as a writer and composer.
Hugh Osborne is a former university lecturer, now an actor and writer. He has appeared in numerous tours and West End shows, and his adaptation of Diary of a Nobody was a hit when it premiered at Royal & Derngate, Northampton, in 2011.
