Amongst Barbarians by Michael Wall

Set in Penang, Malaysia, and based on a true story, this powerful, gripping and unnervingly funny play focuses on two young Englishmen facing the death sentence for drug-trafficking. Their bewilderment and inadequacy in dealing with the experience, and their reactions to an alien culture, together with those of their families, only serve to make matters worse.4 women, 5 men
