THE LAST CRANKIE, a new play written and directed by P.H. Lin, and developed by Cate Cammarata s Create Theater, will make its online debut as part of CreateTheater s Monday Night Reading Series on May 17, 2021 at 7pm EDT.

I was a teenage Anglophile, sitting at home on a slow afternoon this would have been the late ’90s and watching a rerun of the British sketch-comedy show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” (Judge me not.) Fry appeared on the screen, a tall, urbane man with a zigzag nose. He was improvising a story in the style of John le Carré novels. “George,” he began, referring, I would understand later, to le Carré’s spymaster George Smiley and doing so in what I dimly inferred was a tone of upper-class officiousness. “Control’s gone potty, George.
