BLOOD CROSSED
by Gareth Cadwallader

 

Ladies. Gentleman. Are your loins girded? Because we are going to war. We are the right hand of the God of Vengeance. Strike hard. Strike fast. Stand together. Your instructions and trading limits are in your in-trays now. Get to it.

Nominated as City Personality of the Year, super-star trader Seb Gross intoxicated with greed and ambition is getting ready for the biggest deal of his life.

But his betrayed, old friend Bennett and spurned lover Marcia are waiting in the wings to bring him down. When Seb finds himself falling in love with the unbending and stunningly beautiful Head of Compliance, Deborah Rezillo he leaves himself vulnerable to revenge. Get ready for blood on the trading floor in this Jacobean tragedy set in the City's most profitable bank.

Blood Crossed will be presented over three weeks; the weeks in between performances are used to further develop the work, learning from the rehearsals, audience engagement and peer feedback. Come along and take a chance to see how a play is developed and to have your say about how it will turn out!
