A black American ex-heavyweight boxing champion, accused of rape, has his fate in the hands of twelve women, six of them black, in a criminal court. Evidence is considered that was ignored in a famous parallel case in life.

It is 1940 in England. The Hun is at the door. Dunkirk is here and Chamberlain gone. Sir George, slightly injured and freshly returned from beleaguered France as observer, and newly retired in anger from the Foreign Office, reviles the recently deposed previous government administration for not aiding the aristocratic German underground in its pleas for help from Britain to destroy Hitler and its covert attempts to seek a coward's peace.

At last from the murky files of MI5 anti-espionage archives comes this account of a KGB endeavour that was as much attempted Hollywood publicity coup as it was conventional Warsaw Pact stratagem. Red Square awaited its success with baited breath and the Kremlin was decked in bunting in anticipation.

The author suspects such a situation and ambience has occurred in our theatre several generations ago. But never like this. Oh dear no. The lives of our four are of a kind that could never have been explored on stage pre-war for fear of the Lord Chamberlain's Office an...

A crap-strewn strip of suburban beach with two empty knocked-about deck chairs. GERRY and MCGINTY stroll into view dressed in theatrical tramp-like gear. This could be a novelle vague Laurel and Hardy about to launch into a particularly untuneful version of the Trail of the Lonesome Pine. One is fat and the other thin. Or one is tall and the other short. But they are different.....
