Serious money( visu )
1 edition published in 1989 in English and held by 1 library worldwide
"'Serious money' is a social chroicle of the changes wrought in the London financial world by the Thatcherite revolution, a 'Big Bang' of deregulation that opened the doors to a hungry and street-wise new class of traders. It's also amurder mystery: Jake Todd, a back channel for insider tips, is found dead, and his sister, futures trader Schilla Todd, hunts down his rich connections in search of clues. The play's a war story, too: Scilla's quest leads her into the corssfire of a takeover assault that raider Bily Corman has launched against Albion Products and it's insufficiently profit-gouging CEO, Duckett."--A review by Scott Rosenberg, San Francisco Chronicle, 6/8/89.
Reckless( visu )
1 edition published in 1989 in English and held by 1 library worldwide
"At home on Christmas Eve, Rachel is informed by her guilty husband that he has hired a hit man to kill her, and she must flee for her life- which she does by scrambling out the kitchen window and into the snowy night. She meets and joins up with Lloyd Bophtelophti, a true "original" who has changed his name to avoid alimony payments and who now lives with a paraplegic named Pootie (who also pretends to be deaf to get double disability). Rachel then wins $100,000 on a TV game show and begins a series of picaresque escapades involving numerous psychiatrists and, eventually, an ill-fated reunion with her own child (who fails to recognise her), and is led more and more to ponder whether the modern world might not be a vast conspiracy designed to systematically undermine her own increasingly shaky sanity."-- (Dramatists Play Service catalog 95/96).
