Notes: | Original Playwright - Slawomir Mrozek | |||||
Synopsis: | The action takes place in a nameless totalitarian state ruled over with eerie contentment by an infant king and his uncle the regent. When 'the last remaining revolutionary' agrees to take an oath of loyalty to the state and so secure his release from prison, the chief of police seems less than happy. After all, the declaration could signal his own force's obsolescence, especially as his zealous sergeant, working as an agent provocateur, finds it impossible to stir up antigovernment sentiment among the unnaturally placid citizens. What are the police to do when everyone is utterly conformist? | |||||
