The Arsonists

An arsonist would probably be the last on your list of people to have dinner with – but what happens when a highly-respected Singaporean businessman invites not one but two pyromaniacs into his home? This dark comedy by newly-minted theatre company Hot Chocolate Theatre investigates. Initially The Fireraisers by Swiss playright Max Frisch, the play was rejuvenated in 2007 by satirist Alistair Beaton, retitled and performed by the Royal Court Theatre in a production starring Benedict Cumberbatch.
