| I've Been Expecting You, Mr Smirk by Geoff Bamber |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 3. Minimum Female roles = 3. Minimum total with doubling = 14. Minimum total without doubling = 18. No chorus. Smirk, Kazmarov and Starkley are male. Grainger and Lee are written male but might have female counterparts. Tremaine, Ramona and Goodpenny are female. All other characters could be either gender. |
| Run Time | Around 48 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | Comedy spy spoof for youth theatre. Lots of locations but not much set! |
| Synopsis | When Anatoly Kazmarov, recently convicted head of international criminal gang STINK, is sprung from a top-security escape-proof prison, it is obvious that someone even more fiendish than Kazmarov is involved. This is clearly a job for The Secret Department's top man, the suave, debonair (but largely inept) Dirk Smirk. It's just as well that the impossibly beautiful Captain Tremaine is on hand to help him out as a plot to bring the world order to its knees gets underway. |
