The show in question was Butley, a Simon Gray play from 1971 about a university professor who is having the mother of all bad days, and as a result, does nothing but antagonise himself and the others around him to bring his life down around his ears.
Ben Butley is played brilliantly by the wonderfully handsome Dominic West, and I'll admit, he was more than half the reason I wanted to see the play. Anyone who has ever watched The Wire will feel the same, I'm sure!
If you're in London this summer, check out Butley - it's on till 27th August.
