| Synopsis: | A Question of Rent. Why does Reg let Gavin off his rent arrears and then give him money? Why does Gavin call Reg 'Daddy'? What did Reg really do in the army? What is the secret organisation that Gavin has to join and who is it's mysterious leader? Why won't Reg allow women in the house, and who are the men who 'bat for a different team'? What has happened to Gavin's paintings and why does he only wear socks with no feet? Ultimately, the only question which really matters in this fast paced one-act black comedy is who is deceiving whom? Tribunal is a disturbing one-act play about the topical subject of detention without charge. A man is interrogated by a tribunal, but how can he defend himself without knowing what he is supposed to have done? Is he just a naive academic, as he claims? Why did his student hack into the government's secret computer system? How much did the wife really know? How ready are people to betray each other? And finally, why are prayers said for the student? | |||||
