The Pinstripe Trilogy

The Pinstripe Trilogy

Theatre Delicatessen associate artists, The Lab Collective, present a trilogy of acerbic performances that take the audience on a journey into the dark heart of the economic crisis.

In Matador, a last trader stands in the ruins of the collapsed finance industry performing his swansong. As his world crumbles around him, the Matador tries makes one last deal with the audience. Across the corridor, The Bean Counter sits in the tax office, trying to find a way to fill the hole in our country’s pockets. Making decisions that no-one else wants to, he tries to avoid his own gaze in the mirror as he realises he can’t enforce the rules he worships.

A remnant of economic hope is found in Trust Fund, where offer the audience the unique opportunity to invest in our most precious resource – our children. The future generations are our country’s greatest asset, and surely the best way for us to enable them to meet their potential is to privatise childhood?
