Pete and Dud: Come Again
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pete and Dud: Come Again is a stage play about Peter Cook and Dudley Moore written by Chris Bartlett and Nick Awde. This comedy drama had a sellout run at the Assembly Rooms as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2005 before transferring to London's West End at The Venue, in March 2006, in a version starring Kevin Bishop as Moore and Tom Goodman-Hill as Cook. It was published in playtext form by Methuen.
Pete and Dud: Come Again examines the highly influential comic relationship that existed between comedians Cook and Moore. Set in a chat show during the early eighties, it tells their tale from the perspective of Dudley Moore, celebrating the contribution he made to their comedy. In June 2006 it transferred for a short run in Auckland, New Zealand, as part of the Bruce Mason Centre's Best of British festival. Classic rock group 10cc shared the bill.
