Red Noses is a comedy about the black death by Peter Barnes first staged at Barbican Theatre in 1985. It depicted a sprightly priest originally played by Antony Sher who travelled around the plague-affected villages of 14th century France with a band of fools known as God’s Zanies offering holy assistance. It was for this play that Barnes won his Olivier award.
