The play may be produced as Tiny Tim Runs the Marathon or Run Like the Dickens. It’s available in a one-act version here.
“Run… was a non-stop stampede of satire, comic send-up and an underlying wry look at our modern ‘values’, grounded as they are in 15 minutes of carefully manipulated fame… The entertainment level was very high, the smack-bang dialogue often achieving hilarity.” – Brian Byrne, A Kilcullen Diary (Kilcullen, Ireland)
An abandoned set of crutches. Tiny Tim in training to run the marathon. A chance to inspire millions, unless…somebody already has that job. With the powers-that-be backing Oliver Twist, once lowly orphan and now panic attack-ridden pitchman for juicers and cereal who is forced to endlessly reenact his walk to London and his days in the workhouse—and the homicidal trio of Cinderella, Snow White and Little Red Riding Hood on the loose—Tiny Tim may not make it to the starting line.
