The smash-hit musical comedy of spies, double agents and the laws of improbability.

It's 1941. Europe is at war and espionage is the front line. As the rest of the world gets on with World War II, Dublin's lights burn flagrantly and Europe's intellectual elite are out to play. But suspicious messages on a radio show have drawn the attention of MI5, and a diffident young code-breaker is sent to a Dublin crawling with spies and Nazi sympathiseres to determine which side neutral Ireland is really on.

Arthur Riordan's musical Improbable Frequency, with music by Bell Helicopter, was first staged at the O'Reilly Theatre, Dublin, in 2004. It transferred to the Abbey Theatre in 2005, and the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 2006.

    Saw this musical play in NYC over Xmas 2008, and would like to read the text which was incredibly smart, witty fun. The music was less so...
