SYNOPSIS:
Take a 30 something, happy, sappy, yuppie couple, Carl and Marion, who have earned their comfy, self-contained, suburban existence ... throw into their midst a man - Steve - obsessed with murderous revenge, a revenge which happens to include them ... add seduction and terror ... and their home becomes a prison ... a house of correction.
Reviews:
"This is a gripping, individualistic piece which reels from black comedy to sick thrills." WINNER: STAGE AWARD FOR ACTING EXCELLENCE - BETH FITZGERALD (The Stage 15/08/96)
"With a staggeringly energetic tempo throughout, this show moves from sitcom to Hitchcock, mingling the two so neatly that sometimes you don't know what you're watching." (Naked 11/08/96)
"We are kept on the edge of our seats as events move towards a climax beyond expectation." (The Scotsman 30/08/96)
"Anyway you look at it, Lock's play is first, last and always a superior mystery-comedy-thriller ... an astonishing specimen of a nearly extinct genre" (LA Times)
"Lock's weapon is words and he uses them well ... like a nightmare that wakes you up shaking, forcing you to reassess your life" (LA Life)
