The Government Inspector
A scathing satire on bureaucracy and corruption. In a small town at the back of nowhere corruption is rife and the Mayor (Provost) and his cronies have got it made. Then they learn they’re going to be subject to an undercover government inspection, and panic. Mistaking a penniless nobody for the inspector they swiftly fall victims to their own stupidity and greed. This comedy looks at the lengths petty officials will go to cover their inefficiency.
