The Apple Cart:
Charles Edwards, Janie Dee, James Laurenson, Barry Stanton

Set towards the end of the twentieth century, The Apple Cart portrays a vision of Britain in which the country is little more than a staging post for the movement of foreign capital. The heart has gone out of politics and into moneymaking and only a tiny fraction of the electorate can be bothered to vote. When the cabinet threatens to resign en masse if the King does not give up the royal veto, the King decides the time is ripe to upset the apple cart.
