Red Noses has been called the funniest play about the Black Plague ever written. The play depicts a priest convinced that God wants him to struggle against the plague through laughter and not prayers and sermons. To this end, he assembles a troupe of incompetent clowns, including a blind juggler, a mute poet, a wayward nun, two one-legged dancers and a stand-up comedian with a serious speech impediment and travels around the plague-affected villages of 14th century France. Their antics set them on a collision course with the merciless Pope Clement VI.
