Accidental Death of an Anarchist by Dario Fo
Based on a true-life story, this play throws into relief the judicial and police corruption of 1970s Italy. Simon Nye's translation brings out the parallels with our situation in the 21st century.
A popular and controversial playwright, actor and director, Dario Fo has earned international acclaim for his political satires and farces, and has led the field in political satire in Europe for over thirty years. His best known plays include Accidental Death of an Anarchist, We Won't Pay! We Won't Pay!, and Orgasmo Adulto Escapes from the Zoo. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1997 for "emulating the jesters of the Middle Ages in scourging authority and upholding the dignity of the downtrodden."
