[Malcolm Dixon]

Consequences’ would make a good title for this collection of one-act plays. While the final play in the collection is a fun Christmas comedy (featuring in-fighting store Santas), the first three depict colleagues or strangers coming together in an unusual setting / situation and being forced to admit and come to terms with their failings and misdeeds. That so much collective inner turmoil can portrayed in so short a space as a single act testifies to the skill of the playwright and the economy of his writing. Good character-driven drama that local theatrical companies would benefit from staging.
