FAMILIEST(R)EKE is set in Rosekrans hospital, containing the usual mixture of farcical nuts running in and out of doors mistaking everybody for someone else. Dr David Mortimore is about to address a neurologists' convention, which will probably earn him an honorary professoriate. While preparing the final touches to his speech an old co-worker, Jane Tate, arrives and announces that their slight indiscretion years ago resulted in a son, Leslie, who is downstairs at reception desperate to meet his dad.

 

Desperate to hide this catastrophic news from his wife, he is forced to invent not one but two non-existent husbands for Jane and enlist the help of his colleague Dr. Hubert Aucamp. Further complications arise with the presence of a police sergeant, a wandering senile patient, a syringe full of tranquillizer, Dr. Mortimore’s wife, a drugged hospital Matron, Dr. Aucamp’s mother and costumes for the annual hospital pantomime!

This hilarious farce is an Afrikaans translation of Ray Cooney’s “IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY”. FAMILIEST(R)EKE is farce at its best, spinning deliriously out of control and tickling the funny bones, in the true Cooney tradition.
