“Be clean, be quick, be top, be best”
Her husband wants her dead, but Marion’s too busy to notice. With the London housing market booming, she spots a chance to make a killing of her own by flipping a house. There’s just one problem: the current tenants are her closest friends. Undeterred, she hatches a plan and makes them an offer they can’t refuse. A deal is done, and an exchange is made. But is the price worth paying?
Fifty years on from its premiere, Artistic Director Stella Powell-Jones directs this timely revival of Caryl Churchill’s wickedly funny first play about power, property, and possession.
