In November 1994, two young men, Richard Elsey and Jamie Petrolini were sentenced to life imprisonment for the apparently motiveless murder of a taxi driver, Mohammed el-Sayed. In the spring of 1996, Chris Goode wrote a play about it. In Weepie, the true story of this apparently inexplicable act of violence is audaciously intertwined with that of St Mary of Oignies, a 12th century French mystic best known for her hysterical weeping.
