About
A 120 year old cold case has been solved, but the perpetrator is long dead. Yet in this near-future UK, all anyone wants is justice no matter the cost. As the news of the case breaks, the country asks whether the oldest living descendant of the perpetrator should be punished on his behalf. But what will this mean for Hazel, the great-great-great-granddaughter? For her relationship with her best friend Harry? And for the country as a whole?
This is a play that explores justice, our fascination with true crime, and the influence of the media on public perception.
It will leave you questioning everything.
