Description

M3 (middle age) F4 (middle age). A lounge

From the author of Curtain Up On Murder and Murder Weekend comes this comedy-thriller which weaves “an intense web of deceit, intrigue and secrets” (Whitstable and Herne Bay Times). Prospective contestants for a TV reality show gather in a country house, aiming to win a large cash prize, but only if they survive the rigours of the ultimate Spygame. This excellent play offers seven good acting roles and will grip your audience until the totally unexpected ending.
