The Comedy Hormonists

The script for this year's epic was written by those Kings of Korn—McCreary and Higgin. Their brain child "Utopanella" is distinguished by the fact that it has, of all things, a plot—unified complete and cohesive. In spite of this they have sub-plots and ballets, liberally sprinkled with [unclear: that] [unclear: lewdity udity] and crudity which give the show a piquant flavour for which all Extrav's are noted.

The scene opens on the good ship Fonganella, just prior to the cataclysmic catastrophe which leaves her high and dry on the rocks for two years. The question of the Government of this microcosm is complicated by the dissensions arising from the presence of Blimps, Communists and small bourgeois opportunists in the shape of a Shakespearean troupe. The attempts of the fairy godfather, J. J. O'Malley, to steer a middle course to his own advantage, prove abortive, and the show ends in a true Shakespearian debacle, leaving Anthropus, the common man happy in his abysmal ignorance.
