Synopsis: Rod Williams's second play is set on a Caribbean island, where an American company is exploiting the science of cryonics, deep-freezing the bodies of the rich and defunct clients until they are ready to rise again years hence and claim the enormous profits that will have accrued to them through ingenious schemes of tax avoidance. However, things start going bizarrely wrong, especially when the idealistic founder, who has been kept on ice himself, unthaws and finds out just what a racket his business has turned into | ||||
