Carthage

Those of us who suffered the benefit of a classical education might recall the town of the title. All those wars with the Romans, stealing booty and the like. How many Punic wars were there, anyway? Well, October 10ths offering is not a prototype for a Toga saga, it's a contemporary urban drama. As Chris Thompson, its new-to-us writer explains:

"Who do you blame when no-one is guilty?

The Institutionalised take on the institution in this play about guilt, blame and the power of the human touch".
