Play To The End

Actor Toby Flood, formerly of big and small screen but now seldom seen on either, arrives in Brighton on the first Sunday in December with the other cast members of the Joe Orton play LODGER IN THE THROAT.

Flood is visited that night by his estranged wife, who now lives with wealthy entrepreneur, Roger Colborn.

Jenny runs a shop in the Lanes and is worried about a strange man who has taken to hanging around outside.

Roger has dismissed her concerns, but she wants something done and hopes Toby will agree for old times' sake to follow the man to wherever he lives and get to the bottom of his behaviour.

Reluctantly, Flood agrees. He discovers the loner is Derek Osawin. Before he fully understands the risks he is running, Flood finds himself entagled in the mysterious - and dangerous - relationship between the Oswins and the Colborns.

The prospects of him surviving until the close of the show suddenly start to look very far from good.
