    As 'Heaven's Blessings' opens, Tobit has just finished digging a grave in the middle of the night. It is illegal to bury Jewish corpses in the city of Nineveh, and so he must bury them in secret, in the meantime concealing bodies in the wardrobe until he can get round to them. Things go from bad to worse when bird droppings fall into his eyes and blind him, but fortunately the angel Raphael turns up to make sure that events follow the correct Biblical course. From an apocryphal book of the Bible, Peter Barnes extracts a charming epic comedy of Tobit, his wife, their schlemiel of a son and a cantankerous guardian angel, who together set out to reclaim an outstanding IOU, overcoming many dangers which test their faith to breaking point.

    'Bye bye Columbus', a television play first broadcast by the BBC in 1992, is a wry and mocking portrait of a man who sailed halfway across the world for a hint of gold. Peter Barnes mockingly dramatises the distinctly unheroic expedition of Christopher Columbus, which changed the face of the globe, though not entirely in the way he was expecting.

    'Clap Hands Here Comes Charlie', originally written in 1966, but rewritten in 1991, is a riotous, Rabelaisian stew of a comedy concerning the demonic Charlie who is always trying to jump, with both feet, into his left trouser leg. While making a television programme about buskers, Michael Aylmer finds Charlie Ketchum in a lodging house, clutching a trumpet and stinking to high heaven. Intending to do a special programme on this uniquely virulent and garrulous character, Michael invites him to stay at his house. But when Charlie tries to resume his wandering life accompanied by a few household movables, Michael's wife Joan discovers to her cost that even after a bath and new trousers he is dangerous. The first act ends with his trial; the second act begins with his release from a psychiatric hospital.

    First produced at the Swan Theatre, Stratford, in 2001 as an RSC commission, 'Jubilee' is a mischievous comedy on the cynical foundation of the Shakespeare industry. In 1769, the David Garrick is approached by greedy Stratfordian burghers and talked into staging the first theatre festival to celebrate the life of their town's most famous son by having it pointed out to him that founding the cult of Shakespeare will make him even more famous, as well as giving RSC directors something to do. The Jubilee itself was a soggy catastrophe, providing Barnes with ample material for comic exuberance, but he marks it as the starting point of a cultural obsession that deserves some light-hearted ridicule. Barnes' ironic and irreverent comedy dissects the cult of the theatrical personality.

    'Laughter!', first performed in 1978 at the Royal Court Theatre, London, is a two act play that dramatises the screaming cruelty of Ivan the Terrible - the 16th century Russian Tsar - and the anaesthetized bureaucracy which administrated the Nazi concentration camps in the 20th century. With his daring treatment of concentration camps, involving a music-hall style routine, Peter Barnes probes the cavity between comedy and tragedy, examining the mechanisms - among them laughter - which dampen atrocity

    In 'Leonardo's Last Supper', Peter Barnes explores a theatrical mode in which everything is simultaneously tragic and ridiculous. A family of undertakers in a mediaeval charnel house prepares to bury Leonardo da Vinci; disposing of the Renaissance genius will be a lucrative coup for the family business, and so the atmosphere is jovial as they dress up as plague doctors and bicker around the corpse. But their dreams of prosperity and perfumed gloves are interrupted when the health of the deceased polymath suddenly improves. 'Leonardo's Last Supper' was first presented with 'Noonday Demons' in 1969 at the Open Space Theatre

    A television play first broadcast by Channel 4 in 1989, 'Nobody Here But Us Chickens' is a trio of entertaining and challenging comedies about people with mental or physical disabilities, emphasising their individuality without patronization. The eponymous first part introduces a man dressed in only his underpants who believes he is a chicken. In 'More Than a Touch of Zen' two men with cerebral palsy attend a judo class. In 'Not As Bad As They Seem' three blind people inadvertently enter into a bedroom farce as a wife tries to disguise from her husband that she is sleeping with his academic rival

    St Eusebius is in devotional exile in the desert, alone apart from a tower of his own excrement, enduring extreme physical deprivation for the betterment of his soul and apologising to the maggots that live in his festering flesh. After a desperate struggle with a Cockney demon that speaks through Eusebius's mouth, he is challenged by St Pior, a rival hermit, to a bizarre duel of piety. With a mixture of slapstick, rhetoric, religious fervour and red-blooded vernacular, Barnes creates a comic theatre of opposites. 'Noonday Demons' was premiered with 'Leonardo's Last Supper' in 1969 at the Open Space Theatre

A dying man has an epiphany that he must serve God by spreading laughter, and, joined by another man who communicates by shaking limbs covered in tiny bells, he forms a pious brotherhood of joy, the Red Noses of Auxerre, to give cheer to a pestilent and doomed world

    'Revolutionary Witness', televised by the BBC in 1989, is a series of four direct and intelligent monologues about the French Revolution, excavating the individual voices from the historical tide, each based on the story of a real survivor of the Revolution. In 'The Patriot' a man sells souvenirs: bones, stones and medals made from drawbridge chains are flogged as mementos of the uprising, and holy symbols of the new world order. 'The Butcher' is a man who has found it hard to understand very much, except that the Revolution was right and moral and its casualties deserve a hero's pension. 'The Preacher' has an uncompromising commitment to the revolution. 'The Amazon' is the complaint of a courtesan who led the mob wearing red silk on a black horse, and now sits mouldering in an asylum, recalling her life with unhinged lyricism

    'The Bewitched', first performed at London's Aldwych Theatre in 1974, tells the story of Spain's ill-fated King Carlos II. In the 17th century, Spain's political stability hinged on the continuation of the sovereign bloodline. Unfortunately Carlos, the son conceived by the elderly King Philip IV in the opening scene, has epilepsy, distorted limbs, impaired speech and mental confusion, the tragic result of centuries of royal inbreeding. The play traces the grim attempts of his court to engineer the conception of an heir

    'The Ruling Class', premiered at the Nottingham Playhouse in 1968, is a witty, double-edged and idiosyncratic satire. After the 13th Earl of Gurney's morbid nightly indulgence turns into an accidental suicide, the title and estate passes to his son Jack, who has until hitherto been living in a psychiatric institution. He brings with him a belief in divine love, a penchant for sleeping upright on a cross and the conviction that he is the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost

    'Laughter!', first performed in 1978 at the Royal Court Theatre, London, is a two act play that dramatises the screaming cruelty of Ivan the Terrible - the 16th century Russian Tsar - and the anaesthetized bureaucracy which administrated the Nazi concentration camps in the 20th century. With his daring treatment of concentration camps, involving a music-hall style routine, Peter Barnes probes the cavity between comedy and tragedy, examining the mechanisms - among them laughter - which dampen atrocity.

    In 'Leonardo's Last Supper', Peter Barnes explores a theatrical mode in which everything is simultaneously tragic and ridiculous. A family of undertakers in a mediaeval charnel house prepares to bury Leonardo da Vinci; disposing of the Renaissance genius will be a lucrative coup for the family business, and so the atmosphere is jovial as they dress up as plague doctors and bicker around the corpse. But their dreams of prosperity and perfumed gloves are interrupted when the health of the deceased polymath suddenly improves. 'Leonardo's Last Supper' was first presented with 'Noonday Demons' in 1969 at the Open Space Theatre.

    A television play first broadcast by Channel 4 in 1989, 'Nobody Here But Us Chickens' is a trio of entertaining and challenging comedies about people with mental or physical disabilities, emphasising their individuality without patronization. The eponymous first part introduces a man dressed in only his underpants who believes he is a chicken. In 'More Than a Touch of Zen' two men with cerebral palsy attend a judo class. In 'Not As Bad As They Seem' three blind people inadvertently enter into a bedroom farce as a wife tries to disguise from her husband that she is sleeping with his academic rival.

    St Eusebius is in devotional exile in the desert, alone apart from a tower of his own excrement, enduring extreme physical deprivation for the betterment of his soul and apologising to the maggots that live in his festering flesh. After a desperate struggle with a Cockney demon that speaks through Eusebius's mouth, he is challenged by St Pior, a rival hermit, to a bizarre duel of piety. With a mixture of slapstick, rhetoric, religious fervour and red-blooded vernacular, Barnes creates a comic theatre of opposites. 'Noonday Demons' was premiered with 'Leonardo's Last Supper' in 1969 at the Open Space Theatre.

    First produced by the RSC at the Barbican in 1985, Barnes' 1978 'Red Noses' is a black comedy about the Black Death, a vibrant and slapstick hymn to the power of laughter and the human spirit. A dying man has an epiphany that he must serve God by spreading laughter, and, joined by another man who communicates by shaking limbs covered in tiny bells, he forms a pious brotherhood of joy, the Red Noses of Auxerre, to give cheer to a pestilent and doomed world.

    'Revolutionary Witness', televised by the BBC in 1989, is a series of four direct and intelligent monologues about the French Revolution, excavating the individual voices from the historical tide, each based on the story of a real survivor of the Revolution. In 'The Patriot' a man sells souvenirs: bones, stones and medals made from drawbridge chains are flogged as mementos of the uprising, and holy symbols of the new world order. 'The Butcher' is a man who has found it hard to understand very much, except that the Revolution was right and moral and its casualties deserve a hero's pension. 'The Preacher' has an uncompromising commitment to the revolution. 'The Amazon' is the complaint of a courtesan who led the mob wearing red silk on a black horse, and now sits mouldering in an asylum, recalling her life with unhinged lyricism.
