Bribes, mis-directed contracts, mis-allocation of public money, fiddled expenses. Panic. Sound familiar? Nikolai Gogol’s classic satire on bureaucracy and human vanity here presented by Communicado, one of Scotland ’s most trailblazing theatre companies, in a co-production with The Tron, Glasgow. A swinging, fast-paced, very black comedy featuring a cast of ten performers, with live music played by the company.
