The Middlebury Community Players will stage two one-act comedies at the Town Hall Theater in Middlebury in February: Peter Shafer's Black Comedy and Tom Stoppard's The Real Inspector Hound. The Real Inspector Hound is Stoppard's one-act featuring a play within a play. It is both a parody of drawing-room murder mysteries (like The Mousetrap) and an absurd examination of two theater critics charged with reviewing the play within the play. The cast includes the two critics, three women and three men, as well as one dead body that is on the stage throughout the play. Directed by Trent Campbell. Shafer's Black Comedy was first presented in 1965. The action supposedly in the dark is illuminated. When the lights are to be on, the stage darkens. A variety of characters have met for a variety of reasons in the apartment of an aspiring bachelor artist on an evening when a fuse has blown: his giddy, spoiled fiancée, her tightly wound father, a repressed spinster, an electrician, an antique collector, an art collector and a still-interested ex-girlfriend. Directed by Kate Tilton.
