Richard Bean: Plays Four

England People Very Nice
‘A very funny but outrageous comedy…makes you laugh then wonder whether you should have.’ Financial Times
The Big Fellah
‘Bean’s play is very funny, full of sharp contrasts between grim hilarity and gut-wrenching reversals.’ The Stage
(Shortlisted for the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain Best Theatre Play 2011)
The Heretic
‘delicious… Above all, though, it is Bean’s writing that scintillates. Pulsing with shrewd humour, it’s risqué and linguistically rich. There are some blissfully surreal touches… The Heretic is clever, imaginative and entertaining theatre.’ Evening Standard
Winner of the 2011 Evening Standard Theatre Best Play Award.
