"This [play] sure had its show-stealers.  
The stuttering comic, Frapper (Michael Abourizk)
literally left me in tears of laughter whenever he was onstage."

the stuttering, puppeteering Pierre Frapper 
in a rare revival of Peter Barnes’ Olivier Award-winning RED NOSES, 
a dark comedy about the Black Plague!
