Millionaire media boss, Diana Forbes-McKaye, is kidnapped - but the ruthless magnate proves more resourceful than her clumsy abductors. Are things what they seem? Who masterminded the abduction? Who has the television rights to this premier media event? Into this cocktail of chaos, Fo adds a gun-toting priest, a deranged altar boy, a kidnapper hiding in the fridge, pyromania and an explosive climax.

Synopsis:
Highly contentious and subversive at the time of its first production in Milan in December 1970, Accidental Death of an Anarchist has since become one of Fo's best known and translated texts. Based on a true-life story it throws in to relief the judicial and police corruption of 1970s Italy. Simon Nye's superb translation brings out the parallels with our situation today in witty, contemporary dialogue.
