Target Audience is a theatre performance held at The Pleasance Edinburgh. The plot involves a TV production company adapting its programming to align with a new government policy from Whitehall.
A TV production company gets word from Whitehall that they must adapt their programming to align with the government's new policy to rapidly prepare the country for war. Panicked, the producers offer writer Tobias an exorbitant amount of money to pen a 'pro-weapons sitcom', forcing him to choose between his morals and his mortgage. Comedy play from Dan Bishop, writer of smash hit Brainsluts. Previous praise: 'Bishop writes so well' **** (Guardian). 'Laughs come fast and furious' **** (Stage). 'Bishop's witty play could easily be the pilot for a sitcom' **** (Times).
