The Composite Man is a 1935 comedy play by the British writer Ronald Jeans. The lead character is a successful athlete who is assumed to be a genius in everything else, which is far from the case.

The original London cast included Richard Bird, James Hayter, Max Adrian, Anthony Holles, Michael Dyne, Hayley Bell, Elspeth Duxbury and Diana Churchill.[1]
