Accidental Death of an Anarchist

Season 2: ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF AN ANARCHIST

A satirical comedy by Dario Fo
Based on an adaptation by Ed Emery
Directed by Barry Lefort

An irrepressible fraudster known only as the Maniac is brought into Police Headquarters just as the officers
are preparing for a judicial review of the recent ‘accidental’ death of a suspect in custody.

Outwitting his captors, the Maniac dupes them into performing a farcical recreation of the incident,
exposing the absurd institutional corruption and abuses of power within Government and the Judiciary and
the terrifying idiocy at the heart of the system.
