There’s a great idea behind Tim Nunn’s new play for Glasgow’s Reeling & Writhing about the army’s use of humour to interrogate suspects. Instead of tackling the clash of comedy and combat head on, however, the playwright gets distracted by his back-story about a comedian being drafted into the Middle East and finishes the play at the very point it should begin.

Assembly @ 7 Holyrood Road, 623 3030, until 30 Aug (not 18), 2pm & 6pm, £9.50–£11.50 (£7.50–£9.50).
