Microcosm

By Matt Hartley

Paperback £9.99£7.99

Ebook £9.99£7.99

A searing thriller about paranoia, social divisions, and the creeping threat of the intruder, by the Bruntwood Prize-winning playwright.

Alex has his flat. His home. He's building a life with Clare. Nothing can derail his happiness - he just wishes those kids would stop hanging round outside his house. But they're just kids, with nothing to do. They're not dangerous, right?

Matt Hartley's play Microcosm was first performed at Soho Theatre, London, in May 2014.
