      THE BUTLER DID IT AND OTHER PLAYS

      THE BUTLER DID IT AND OTHER PLAYS

      Things go wrong, and funny things happen, in these six short plays. There is always something which causes problems for someone.

      James, the butler, always does what ‘sir’ tells him. ‘Very good, sir,’ he says. That’s what makes him a good butler. But one day ‘sir’ asks James to do something very unusual. Does James do it or not?

      Most office workers do what their employer tells them, too. They know exactly what people must or must not do. ‘Rules are rules,’ they say. This makes life difficult for the man with the monkey, when he visits the licensing office!

      Roger’s problem is that he hasn’t got much money. His rich girlfriend’s problem is that he hasn’t asked her to marry him. There seems to be an easy answer, but as in all these plays, things are more difficult, and much funnier, than that.
