Synopsis

Set in London in 1936, this 'whodunnit' farce is about twin brothers. Evelyn, and eccentric out-of-work actor plots to have his wealthy brother Rupert killed. Evelyn engages the genial Irishman Powell, with a shady past, to do the dirty deed. Meanwhile, Evelyn's plotting is constantly interrupted by his love-starved landlady. Things do not go as planned and people are not what they seem; the action escalates into a farce of mistaken identities with surprises to the very end.
