This comedy features a group of lawyers away for an important
weekend conference. Hugo Barnes desperately wants to be a High
Court Judge and has organised the conference - under the title
'Clean up the Bar' - to impress the new Lord Chancellor. Hugo's
friend and married colleague, Nick Willmott, has invited a young
solicitors' secretary along for the weekend. This decision
threatens Nick's marriage, Hugo's plans for a trouble-free
conference and both their reputations. Misunderstandings, narrow
escapes and attemped sexual infidelity combine with an unusual
undercurrent of family reconciliation and personal discovery.
This new supernatural thriller is set in a theatre that has been
closed for sixty years following the accidental death of a child
during rehearsals for Murder by Poison, a Victorian thriller. Now
Micky, the great-grandson of the theatre's original owner, has set
about restoring the theatre to the glory of its former heyday, and
to cap his plans he's intent on reviving the very same play to
re-open the renovated theatre. Only Micky's elderly and eccentric
father William knows the truth of what happened all those years
ago. He tries to warn Micky that the play is doomed and urges him
to abandon his plans, but Micky ignores the warning - and as
rehearsals progress, unusual and mysterious occurrences begin to
mount with deadly and terrifying consequences.
This intriguing, multi-layered, witty thriller for two men and two
women is full of unexpected twists. A Russian doll of a play, it
moves from a seemingly innocuous domestic playreading through a
murder mystery in the classic style, to a final terrifying and
violent climax. It was first produced at the Edinburgh Festival in
2004 and subsequently presented to critical acclaim at the Jermyn
Street Theatre, London, in 2006.
