Dames, detectives, stylish hats, ‘car chases’... this parody of the film noir genre has got a gag rate that fires faster than a Tommy-gun and is marginally less painful. If you like Airplane, the oeuvre of Mel Brooks, dicey puns and sight gags, this show is probably for you.

NOTD is influenced by the likes of satirical masterpieces AIRPLANE and POLICE SQUAD. Come see the play that reviewers say ‘has broad appeal – silly, daft, hilarious, and highly entertaining’, is ‘easily the best show I’ve seen at The Fringe’ and is ‘hilarious from the first second’.
