 Synopsis
Barbara's husband is missing on the family farm. Jack, your stereotypical farmer, suffers a bump to the head, causing him to, as the play's name suggests, go a tad nutty. The havoc this creates leads to many an unexpected event and awkward moment.
On his return he is a nervous wreck and will not leave the house... he is suffering from 'agriphobia' (the fear of agriculture), and is convinced that he is Hiroo Onoda - a Japanese soldier holding out on an island after World War Two.
Barbara's husband is, well... nuts. The only people she can trust with this information is the new vet and the village idiot. How will they restore Jack's mind without the help of the medical profession... or common sense?
