THE GAG TRADE / Simply Dead

THE GAG TRADE (Misadventures in TV and Radio Comedy). BOB SINFIELD has written for most of Britain's funniest comedians, from Bob Monkhouse and Tracey Ullman to Rory Bremner and Neil Kinnock. THE GAG TRADE is his personal memoir of the often unintentional hilarity that occurs off-mike and behind the screen. The book is available at Lulu.com Revel in the behind-the-scenes tales of what makes the household names of comedy tick!

SIMPLY DEAD (a one-man murder mystery!). It's murder in Llandudno! Newly banished from Scotland Yard after bungling the case of the knackered chef, Inspector Flint faces a web of Welsh intrigue involving sex, drugs and OAP karaoke nights with a Mick Hucknall lookalike and a seagull shot at point-blank range. BOB SINFIELD stars as everyone except the seagull.

SQUIRE HAGGARD'S JOURNAL/Lord Buckley

SQUIRE HAGGARD'S JOURNAL

“A deplorably funny romp” - THE OBSERVER

Squire Amos Haggard spends his time carousing with wenches and shooting at foreigners.  To escape and impending duel, he flees the country continuing his vile debauchery amid the crowned heads of 18th century Europe. Thrill to the revelations in his recently found diaries!  (Written by Michael Green, world-famous author of 'The Art of Coarse Acting')

AN AUDIENCE WITH LORD BUCKLEY (The Dapper Rapper)

"A classical gas to treasure" - GLASGOW HERALD                        

Bob Sinfield's solo recreation of one of comedy's great eccentrics. For those who ain't down on all that jazz, Lord Buckley was the creation of one Richard Buckley, who dressed in a pith helmet and had the manners of the gentrified English upper-crust, but who reinvented the classics in a jive-talking semantic head-rush that pre-dated rap by decades. Sinfield tackles the show with boundless aplomb in this fantastical and devoted run-through some of the great man's finest works. From the story of Jesus, aka The Nazz and Vasco da Gama (The Gasser) and even Willy The Shake (Shakespeare)'s Julius Caesar, in which "Friends, Romans, countrymen" are reborn as Hipsters, flipsters and finger-poppin' daddies, it's a whip-smart semantic stew in which Sinfield throws in a couple of latter-day props for good measure.
