The year 1793, and the French Revolution is turning from new dawn to bloody nightmare. One man alone knows of the sinister forces driving the carnage and has the power to save Europe from destruction. Unfortunately for Europe, he is imprisoned in Bedlam, London's most notorious mental asylum. Here, opium is the best medicine, madness is bled out of patients, and the surgeon himself is losing his mind... Codpiece Theatre presents the true story of James Tilly Matthews, secret agent and schizophrenic, and his struggle for truth in a world where Britain was a police state, God had been replaced by the Machine, and where even if you were paranoid, they were still out to get you.
