"A scientific study into a modern psychosis". A white-coated psychiatrist attempts to explain to us just how we approach the issues of human mental health by addressing just how we look at the world. Should that be realistic or, say, more illusory? Childhood sees reality used as inspiration for fantasy - but that doesn't always end well. Then there's puberty - a hormonally and rebellion charged version of childhood. Adulthood splits into various stages evolving from glorified youthfulness, ambition and lust through, gradually, to the person we've loathed all along for persecuting us when we were young! The characters have others drawn within them, and the psyche is identified with a mischievous "Casper" style of ghostly apparition that rules the roost creating a human being who can become paranoid, neurotic or well... Is this how you see yourself? Where is the Mandrax? Drink anyone? Or!? How about we don a pair of special spectacles and view the world entirely differently. Don't bother trying to rationalise things. Don't see them as they actually are but as how you'd like them to be, or as they ought to be? Where is the Mandrax? Drink anyone? The circle of life here is drawn in quite an entertainingly drawn and scored fashion that's offers a surprisingly plausible prognosis for modern life fifty years on.
