What the Butler Saw

The Las Vegas Little Theatre presents What the Butler Saw, a comedy by Joe Orton.

Orton’s inspired comic masterpiece, which pokes fun at sex, authority, family relationships and the world of psychoanalysis, remains as fresh and audacious today as ever. Dr. Prentice, a sex obsessed psychiatrist, is attempting to seduce a prospective secretary but is frustrated by the arrival of his nymphomaniac wife, an over enthusiastic hospital inspector and a dimwitted policeman. The clinic becomes a bedlam of mistaken identity, undressing and cross dressing, dropped trousers and heightened libidos as the true traditions of classic farce are spiked with Orton’s unmistakable subversive glee. JayC Stoddard directs.
