Black Widow, Paperback / softback Book

Black Widow Paperback / softback

Part of the Acting Edition S. series

Paperback / softback

Description

Lord Arlington is dead, poisoned by a corned beef sandwich.

His daughter Emily, obsessed by Hamlet, becomes convinced that her mother Cressida and old family friend Richard Harker are responsible for Lord Arlington's death, and she sets out to exact a terrible revenge.

Madness, murder, passion, ghosts and retribution are all themes of this complex play, set in the Edwardian era, but with modern sensibility.

An intensely theatrical work, written to be performed on a virtually bare stage, with swift changes in lighting and a host of sound effects creating a variety of moods and locations - allowing the play to flow from scene to scene with the minimum of fuss.
