Alan Ayckbourn, the prince of satirical comedy, lightens up
with the delightful play “Improbable Fiction”, directed by award-winning
Coleen van Stadeen for MADS. It opens at the Masque Theatre, Muizenberg,
on Friday 5 February 2010.
This zany comedy looks at the fears, longings and literary
aspirations of a dysfunctional writers' circle. Ayckbourn turns the
serious business of writing on its head with a gentle but fun-filled poke
at a number of contrasting literary genres.

With a clap of thunder, he plunges these would-be authors into a crazy
world of their own unfulfilled aspirations – complete with goblins,
detectives, Victorian ladies and aliens.
