Revenge
(published by Warner Chapell) * |
| The play has toured the UK successfully on a number of occasions, and received a number of foreign productions |
Robin Hawdon’s only thriller. A two-handed mystery concerning an ambitious MP and business tycoon, visited in his luxury Mayfair apartment by an unknown woman who turns out to know a great deal more about his activities than she should do, and whose true identity is concealed behind so many onion skins of mystery that one can never be certain of it until the final curtain. This play is an imaginary account of that extraordinary evening, when the two giants of the political scene with their contrasting political philosophies, met together with their equally imposing wives. It has yet to find a first production despite various attempts – due mostly to the difficulty of casting the two main protagonists. * |
