Beware of the Old Bull is a sharp, witty satire by David Withy, performed by the Wellington Heath Amateur Dramatic Society. It follows Alan, an ordinary man who discovers a hidden world behind the British Library where English idioms come to life.
From Hobson’s Choice to Bobby Dazzler, Alan meets a cast of living expressions while uncovering the nonsense behind business-speak and jargon. This clever comedy pokes fun at how language is twisted in politics, advertising, and management.
A charming blend of humour, wordplay, and cultural critique, it’s a must-read for anyone who loves the English language or just enjoys a good laugh.
