Frozen Assets (play)

Last updated

Frozen Assets is a 1978 play by Barrie Keeffe, written for the Royal Shakespeare Company. [1] The play is "about what happens to a youth after he kills a prison guard". [2] A production of the play was put on by director Will MacAdam at the NY Theatre Ensemble in 1983. [2] Clive Mantle starred in a radio adaption of it. [3] A revival of the play was put on by the Shattered Globe Theatre of Chicago under Nick Bowling from January 1999. It was praised by the Chicago Sun-Times as "hugely entertaining", a "marvelous blend of satire and social commentary and class-based screwball comedy". [1] In 1989 Frozen Assets was also staged at the Half Moon Theatre in Stepney, East London with Marc Tufano playing the lead role of Buddy Clark.
