Description This play examines the seductive nature of power and the dangers in doing what you're told. It looks at connections between power, wealth and social status and how people gain power over others. It considers how people who find themselves in positions of power may confront aspects of themselves not previously encountered and may easily abuse this power. It also explores how people may be coerced/ seduced into powerlessness but will ultimately rebel.
