Murray Head: One Night in Bangkok

It begins with cast member Murray Head disembarking a ship in Bangkok's port via the gangplank. He has arrived for the World Chess Championship, to be held in the city that year. Scenes of Murray Head playing chess with a beautiful girl, chorus singers in Asian accoutrements, and other exotic representations of Bangkok play, as Murray and the Chorus cynically tell through song of the pitfalls of playing in the constantly venue changing tournament, particularly in this city: swarming with tourists of less than pure motives, who don't appreciate the lofty intellectual heights of the event being held in their midst.
