Play: One Hand Clapping

Janet doesn’t want her life to change that much – she’s quite happy working at the supermarket, cooking for her husband three times a day and watching quiz shows in the evening. But when Howard unleashes his photographic brain on the world, the once modest used-car salesman can’t seem to stop. And what he sees as the logical conclusion to his success isn’t something Janet can agree to.

Written by Anthony Burgess. Adapted for the stage and directed by Lucia Cox. Supported by The Arts Council, House of Orphans and the International Anthony Burgess Foundation.
