by Nikolai R. Erdman (1900-1970), a Soviet dramatist and screenwriter primarily remembered for his work with Vsevolod Meyerhold in the 1920s. His plays, notably The Suicide (1928), form a link in Russian literary history between the satirical drama of Nikolai Gogol and the post-World War II Theatre of the Absurd.

Afrikaans translation by André P. Brink. Full-length. Cast: mixed.

The first production was by CAPAB in May 1973, directed by Pieter Fourie with Johan Malherbe as Semjon, stage manager Mavis Lilenstein.
