Details

War, poverty, corruption, spiralling taxes, bad behaviour, inter-personal violence and over-population. Do these things worry you? The Mentalists is a darkly funny play, from the author of Toast. Middle-aged fleet manager Ted, hits on a utopian plan to change the way we live. An intricate tale of power play, fantasy and gradual revelation; a touching portrayal of two disappointed, lonely middle-aged men.
