A brash and sexy short play about death, deceit and poker.
Francis, Charlie and Cupid meet each week to play the game. Francis and Cupid share a savage secret. And when Charlie discovers the truth, it's a gun he wants to be holding and not a stack of cards.
Poker. It's a game of bluffs, gambles, victories and losses. A bit like life really.
David Dipper's play Flush was first staged at Soho Theatre, London, in 2004.
'Dipper's language is as jagged as a broken bottle, as sharp as a splinter. And, underneath all the macho strut, the emotional wounds gape open and pulse with visible hurt... a powerful and often hilarious debut'
What's On'The writing has such a kick, the structure is so slippery and the scenario so twisted and compelling that I found myself leaning further and further forward on my seat'
