The worst thing about seeing all 3 menus of Bite Size is knowing that you’ve seen them all. Always entertaining, year after year, and 2024 was as good as ever. There were 6 playlets on this Menu.
Criminal Behaviour - A robbery that seems routine for the victims. They're happy to talk to the robber, make suggestions even, but he's the one who gets something very different to what he was hoping for. Funny and twisted.
Halloween - Not much by way of laughs in this one, but a very moving vignette of grief, and life in a small town.
Jitters - A new national service to cut down on the divorce rate, unlike any that have gone before. Compulsory for brides, and maybe not such a bad idea…? Funny and optimistic.
The Rota - When one of your group of friends finds herself out on a limb, she has expectations that the others will help her out - and she has the spreadsheet ready for them. Just how committed will they be? How far does friendship extend?
Chute! - He’s about to take his first ever parachute jump, but the instructor isn't doing much to settle his nerves. Funny but dark.
In The Attic - Take every cliched trope about literary attics, and watch them being crammed into ten minutes of hilarity. The mad wife, the ghost, the spurned lover - they are all here in a fast moving finale featuring all 5 cast members. Gloriously silly.
Lots of variety on offer here, and as entertaining as the other 2 menus.
