The Neville Report - Village of Fear by Gary Diamond, John Fryer & Ray Lawrence |
Roles | Minimum Male roles = 2. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 3. Minimum total without doubling = 8. No chorus.

One of the characters - Harry the Leg - is purely a sound effect! |

Music | None. |
Style | One-act play - a comic pastiche of a 1950s radio drama intended for presentation as a staged radio play. |
Synopsis | A comedy radio play that pits intrepid reporter Neville Reville against the supernatural goings-on in Merry Waddle on the Weddle. Aided only by a leg in disguise, Neville braves the Portals of Hell (a pub), Lusty Wanda (a siren) and the evil Mordred to rescue Lady Purity! |
