"The world needs a wash and a week's rest" - WH Auden - The Age of Anxiety

4 old friends - writers, lovers, activists, celebrities - gather in a 16th century palace on one evening in a country where power is all and nothing can be trusted. Is someone listening to them? Can any of them speak freely? Can they resist the powerful forces that surround them and still maintain their art?

Arthur Miller
's prescient 1978 play, never before seen in New York City, forces us to confront politics as theatre, where blending the truth with lies is all part of the game.
