Description "A combination of the two plays Ubu Roi and Ubu Enchaine. Ubu Roi satirises greed and hypocrisy and derives endless verbal humour from excretion. Ubu Enchaine is a prophetic pre-surrealist parable in which the anarchic theme of the play is clothed with the captivating hilarity of knock-about farce."
