Description: 28 consecutive years of unemployment notwithstanding, Tommy McMillan becomes the poster boy for the Department of Social Inclusion's 'Training For Work' scheme - but the Department gets more than they bargained for when they discover the true extent of his aspirations. 'King of Scotland' is an outrageous Fringe First winning monologue. It was first performed at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2000.
Notes: Adapted from Diary of a madman by Nikolai Gogol.
