J.B. PRIESTLEY'S
AN INSPECTOR CALLS
Directed by Patrick White

(Performance dates: Jan 26-28 & 31 – Feb 4, 2018)
The action of the play takes place in an English industrial city, where a young woman commits suicide and an eminently respectable British family is subject to a routine inquiry in connection with the death. An inspector calls to interrogate the family, and during the course of his questioning, all members of the group are implicated in some way in the girl’s undoing. All of them knew her in one capacity or another. The family, closely knit and friendly at the beginning of the evening, is shown up as selfish, self-centered or cowardly, it’s good humor turning to acid, before the evening is over.
