Summary 'This is Ayckbourn at the peak of his powers using comedy to say harsh, true things about our society. With the cleansing force of a satirist, he suggests we are constantly fed a doctored version of reality in which virtue is treated as disposable and even as sexy. What he has written is a tonic comedy that defends traditional values without a trace of moral sententiousness.' --Guardian. Man of the Moment premiered at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in August 1988"-- Provided by publisher
"Jill presents a TV drama/documentary series and is filming a reunion between Vic, a convicted robber, and Douglas who, seventeen years ealier, foiled his bank-raid attempt ... Vic ... is [now] a rich TV personality while Douglas ... lapsed into shabby obscurity ... will history repeat itself, or will justice finally be served?"-- French
