By Anthony Minghella

Book Overview

Anthony MinghellaFull Length, Comedic Drama Characters: 7 male, 5 female Interior and exterior scenes or one unit set. Written by the late writer/director of many cinematic hits including The English Patient, this play explores British imperialism and the exploitation of indiginous culture focussing on five English tourists in Bangkok. "The best new English play since Benefactors. It asks all the right questions while managing also to be a bittersweet comedy about impossible sexual differences."-Punch "Under a deceptively comic surface, Anthony Minghella's play offers a dark and troubled view of both Eastern and Western values."-London Guardian "An extremely funny play but also a scathing indictment of our so called civilized society."- Time Out "Strong, brave, uncomfortable, provocative."-London City Limits
