No Real Idea What’s Going On Productions Folds

Investors and theatregoers alike were indifferent to learn today that the famed parent company of Bemused Production Absurdities had folded in a hail of leaflets.

The Vigilante Mob of Stolen Food Against Food Theft had been picketing the company for over a month in an effort to rid the world of “unfeeling aggressors who use innocent (stolen) crabs in their market gardens”. The Vigilantes stepped up their campaign with a mass leafleting, which buried a 300-storey skyscraper in a mass of tracts.

No Real Idea What’s Going On Productions reported a loss of $AUD6 billion earlier this week due to a badly timed entry into the food-grade industrial carpet market. Said a paper-muffled spokesman: “Well, I’m not sure. I think that possibly platform shoes may have been the deciding factor, and not backing ‘The Cafeteria of the Mind’. Possibly it’s just something environmental, and we’ll be back on our feet soon. We’re still discussing our future, but we have no real idea what’s going on, after all.”

Bemused Production Absurdities, that mediocre yet eminently successful theatre company, will remain trading as it negotiates with the Desperate Food Thieves Catering Company, as the two have a long and fruitful three-week association. Their next production, as yet untitled, will hit a refrigerator door soon.
