Comic Potential: A Play (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, London, 2000
ISBN 10: 0571197876 ISBN 13: 9780571197873
First Edition
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Comic Potential is a comedy set in the foreseeable future when everything has changed except human nature . . . Alan Ayckbourn's fifty-third full-length play was first presented at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in 1998 and received its West End premi re at the Lyric Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue, in October 1999. A sci-fi comedy thriller, "Comic Potential" is a play set in the foreseeable future, when everything has changed—except human nature "Comic Potential" is set in a television studio in the near future, where the director—an alcoholic has-been—and two assistants are making a daytime soap opera of the usual appalling sort. However, the difference here is that they are using actoids—robots programmed to act—and there are no scriptwriters. Into this situation comes the idealistic Adam, the nephew of the millionaire station owner, who wants to write comedy of the quality that Chaplin and Keaton once embodied. But when Adam falls in love with Jaycee Triplethree (JC333), one of the actoids on the show, everything is turned upside down as she grows more human and the line between actoid and human diminishes. When in anguish Jaycee finally cries that she can't say anything she hasn't been programmed to say, Adam points out that no one ever says anything original anyway. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
