'About a Spy' is a madcap farce poking fun at the secret agent genre. The action erupts in London and Spain during World War 2 as our 'heroes' from MI6 unleash "Operation Chestnut Stuffing," a ludicrous plot aiming to dupe the Nazis into believing that a hugely significant (and entirely untrue) military operation is being planned. Meanwhile, a parallel story becomes hilariously intertwined with the spy games - the desperate search for renowned playwright and poet Federico Garcia Lorca, who was seized by a fascist gang during Spain's civil war a few years earlier. But who exactly is telling what lies? Who will be deceived? And who betrayed? Not those you might expect -that's for certain! This fast moving, colourful and frankly farcical tale is set to incidental music played on Spanish guitar. Contains adult humour: suitable for age 16+
