Description
The Accused: Benjamin Trip. Handsome, charming and well-groomed. The Victim: Lucy Parks. Good-looking, witty and self-assured. The Academic: Val Greco. Opinionated, formidable and charismatic.Phyllis Nagy is a supreme wordsmith and dramatist, whose taut, precise dialogue cunningly treads a fine line between what we see and what we hear and brings into sharp focus a world where pinning down words leads not to clarity and truth but to lies and obfuscation.Trip's Cinch received its first UK production at Southwark Playhouse in September 2002.
