Broadside programme from the estate of former Python Eric Idle which he describes as marking his ‘professional comedy debut’. Directed by Steven Frears no less at the Edinburgh Festival in 1963 this was also the British premier of Miller’s surreal and only play.

A single sheet (25x15cm) printed on both sides; a little browned otherwise fine. Recently sold by Eric Idle to a US bookdealer and thence to us. Otherwise unrecorded.

Frears’ Edinburgh production was mounted on a specially built revolving state which sometimes didn’t! Idle went on to achieve comic immortality with Monty Python’s Flying Circus and the rest is history.
