Accidental Death of an Anarchist
East Lane Theatre, Sudbury, HA0 3HG
Wednesday 2nd December 2026
When a quick-witted fraudster is detained at a police station, he prompts an unscheduled investigation into the mysterious death of a suspect who left the building during an interrogation… via a top-floor window.
What follows is a whirlwind of re-enactments and increasingly outrageous excuses, as the ‘Maniac’ runs rings around the police officers and unravels their web of contradictions and cover-ups.
In this acclaimed razor-sharp adaptation by Tom Basden of Dario Fo’s comedy the chaos is relocated to contemporary Britain.
A hilariously fast-paced farce, that skewers institutional corruption making the madness feel more relevant now than ever.
