Along with Nick Awde, he co-wrote the stage play Pete and Dud: Come Again, a hit at the Assembly Rooms at the 2005 Edinburgh Festival Fringe (under the title of Come Again), where it was shortlisted for a Fringe First Award by The Scotsman, before transferring to London's West End at The Venue, in March 2006, starring Kevin Bishop as Dudley Moore and Tom Goodman-Hill as Peter Cook.

Pete and Dud: Come Again also headlined the Best of British theatre festival at the Bruce Morton Centre in Auckland in June 2006 and was published in playtext form by Methuen (2006). It embarked on a three-month tour of the UK in spring 2007.

The play charts the sometimes rocky relationship between Moore and Cook, from their first pairing as part of the pioneering Beyond the Fringe in 1960 to their controversial Derek and Clive albums in the late seventies. It was described as "an absorbing tragicomedy about the price of laughter and the true cost of fame" by William Cook in British newspaper The Guardian when it transferred to the West End.

A follow-up, Unnatural Acts, a comedy drama also written with Awde, premiered at the Gilded Balloon as part of the 2007 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, starring Jessica Martin and Jason Wood.

In 2011 he wrote the narration for "A Christmas Carol Unplugged", an acoustic musical concert performance inspired by Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, produced by Awde and performed at the Union Chapel, Islington by Slade star Noddy Holder and musicians including Knox of The Vibrators.

Bartlett has also written for the BBC Radio 4 comedy series Bearded Ladies (radio show) and, as an arts journalist and reviewer, contributed to publications including The Stage, Heat (magazine) and New Woman.
